Automated document review, e-discovery, and AI-driven legal research are slashing the time required to perform various tasks. As these technologies become more prevalent, they call into question the very nature of billing for time spent rather than value delivered. Not only do they improve efficiency, but they also compel legal professionals to consider how best to align their pricing models with the tangible benefits clients receive.
