A legal billing VA manages time entry and invoicing — recording billable time, preparing invoices, applying billing rules, and following up on receivables — so the firm captures and collects what it earns. The problem Unrecorded time and slow invoicing leak revenue. Time that never gets recorded and invoices that go out late leak firm revenue.
