Hi josh,

Have you released your entries because I do not see them on last month's prebill for this matter? As you know time entry is critically important especially at year end. Oh wait, I see you billed under the general number for Telekinetics. Who instructed you to do that? I'll have Mary-ann switch all the entries over once she returns from lunch.

translation: take your best guess at what you think you should be billing for each task and massage your entries accordingly.

This is not billable because the client is very cost sensitive on this. Bill it to non-billable training. Plz finish the draft by Monday. I'm on a golf trip all weekend so I won't be reachable but we can discuss mon morning.

All work from prior to the tolling agreement should be billed to .515. Post-tolling agreement work goes to .516. Meetings with the expert go to the earlier matter: 11922-333 (the client wants us to consider this work part of the previous investigation, which is being covered by D&O). Remember that you should still be billing your work on the related litigations to their respective numbers (54909-666, 691). And don't forget to use the activity codes to indicate the type of work you are doing.

As always, you'll need to keep sending your mid-month estimates of total hours you expect to expend on all projects for this client, broken down by matter number. I noticed that your recent estimates tended to be a bit low. Please keep in mind that this client will continue to require a lot throughout the holidays.

I'll see you in my office at 7:30 tomorrow morning (might want to bring the kneepads again).

Thank!

Jennifer

As far as I'm concerned there are only three tasks: case strategy/analysis, drafting, and research.

Yet somehow there are literally dozens of codes in the system.

They just identified a new issue that the client wants to explore separately, so bill the main transaction work to -002 and this side issue to -004, which is not open yet but will be next week. Also please mark up your time for September and October so the proper allocations can be made to the new matter -004. Accounting will make the changes.
