Appreciations from industry experts

I worked with Andre on the creation and implementation of an electronic bill review program for review of legal invoices. My experience was nothing short of exceptional! Andre is clearly one of, if not the foremost, expert in the bill review and legal invoice creation industry. The use of this bill review software has resulted in huge savings, a streamlined review process and a quicker turnaround time for payments to our law firms. I highly recommend Andre and his company for all law firms looking to create and submit invoices that will be 100% compliant with their client’s service level agreement. If you want to impress your clients and improve your cash flow at the same time, contact Andre now!

ALB became a key player on our billing team to help us achieve compliance with insurance defense practices to ensure we were paid fairly. ALB integrates with our billing software, Clio, and provides a review of time entries when they are entered. It evaluates each time and expense entry for required information and detail so that any updates to the time entry can be made while the activities are fresh on the attorney's minds—not three months later after being flagged by the e-billing service provider. ALB also customizes the rules for each e-billing service and billing guidelines. We finally felt like we could take back control of the billing process and ensure that our legal team was being paid fairly. We highly recommend adding ALB to your billing process.
