They involved generating pre-bills, sending them to attorneys for review, making necessary adjustments and then manually sending hundreds of invoices each month.<\/li><li><strong>Resource Constraints<\/strong>: The firm\u2019s billing staff struggled to keep up with the volume of tasks, which included both physical mail and an increasing shift towards email invoicing.<\/li><li><strong>Need for Additional Staff<\/strong>: Carlson Dash was on the verge of hiring an additional full-time employee to manage the growing billing workload.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a14e04 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1a14e04\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Solution: <\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-70a139b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"70a139b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>As Michelle Krifka, Firm Administrator at Carlson Dash, recalls, \u201cIt was kind of a fluke that we even found out about it.
