[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Show me a partner who consistently bills 2500 hours a year and I’ll show you someone committing billing fraud. [/quote] Some billable hours are less labor-intensive than others. Also, if you're at a point in your career where you watch bills go out to clients, have you noticed that they're not always based on hours billed, but on a flat fee. In finance, for example, lawyers bill a flat fee for a legal opinion. I assume the lawyer running the opinions fills in their time to reach the flat fee that is billed to the client, otherwise no one is getting credit for it (other than the equity partners). [/quote]
