of attorney time lost to non-billable admin
40%
Solo attorneys spend nearly half their day on tasks that never make it to an invoice.
Scheduling, intake, document requests, billing follow-up, and client messages can consume 40 percent or more of a solo or small firm attorney's workday. The average attorney bills just 2 to 3 hours out of an 8-hour day. GAVEL is built to close that gap.Billable time that disappears
The average attorney bills just 2 to 3 hours out of an 8-hour workday. Intake, follow-up calls, and billing admin consume hours that should be on a timesheet. (Clio Legal Trends, 2024)
Invoices that age into write-offs
Law firms collect only 85 percent of what they bill. Net-30 terms and manual follow-up push collections into next month, or not at all. (Clio Legal Trends, 2024)
Client files spread across systems
Retainer agreements, discovery materials, and case notes scattered across email, Dropbox, and physical files create risk, delay, and hours wasted searching for the right document.
