The Serengeti Newsletter

Many law departments need an efficient way to track how much time their staff is spending on specific business units or types of legal work. Serengeti provides an optional tool that allows them to quickly gather this data on the matters already in the system or create special "Time-entry Only" matters for administrative tasks and special projects.

track internal time without complicated setup

Unlike law firm time and billing systems that are difficult to integrate and require significant setup, Serengeti's built-in time entry module provides law departments the same functionality in an efficient, ready-to-use module. Users can quickly allocate their weekly time by either hours or percentage using an interface that they are already familiar with—no training required. Optional alerts help users know when their time allocations are due.

Reporting and Analysis

Once internal time is collected, Serengeti uses each timekeeper's fully burdened cost to calculate their individual hourly rate. That rate translates into in-house spending which can be viewed by business unit, practice group, matter category, substantive law, matter, or user—including comparisons of internal time costs versus outside counsel fees.

Reports allow managers to quickly analyze attorney workloads, projects that are taking a significant amount of in-house resources, and comparisons of managing work in-house or sending it to outside counsel. Exports simplify the process of allocating time to specific business units and delivering the cost data to business managers and AP or finance departments.
