I continue to bill hours.
Subject Expert
My hot take is that billable rates are going to continue to RISE even though the total number of billers (particularly paralegals, juniors) will decrease over time (due to AI).
I see that but I see the number of biller drastically reducing to the point of like maybe less than 50 billers left. You just need the judgment call at that point. Maybe 100 billers because of conflict rules.
The billable hour is more like a loose recommendation to the partner on how much to charge. The differentiator has been and will continue to be excellence of reputation and networking.
Billable hour may be dead for charging clients, but it will never be dead as a requirement for associates
How does that even work? No associates left then what
I wish
