The Work Happened. Where Did the Time Go?

A full day of work should not turn into an evening spent reconstructing it.

But when time entries fall behind, the details can be scattered across emails, text threads, document revisions, and completed tasks. Getting billing caught up becomes another project on an already full desk.

At Hartley Paralegal, LLC, we take on that cleanup. We track down the supporting records, organize what needs attention, and help put a consistent billing process in place. You can get back to your matters while we handle the administrative work behind the review.

We take on the search

We review available matter-related records alongside existing time entries, connect the activity to the right matter, and identify possible omissions. We also check whether the work is already reflected elsewhere.

You receive an organized review with supporting information ready, so you can see what needs attention without retracing every conversation yourself.

We bring focused questions to the timekeeper and attorney for verification. We never guess at time or assume every activity is billable. The attorney keeps control of billing decisions.

We handle the follow-through

Our support can continue beyond the initial cleanup. We can manage recurring record reviews, track items awaiting verification, and prepare billing information for the next cycle. Your firm has someone responsible for the administrative follow-through.

Overdue invoices can be part of that support, too. We organize outstanding balances, maintain follow-up records, and handle agreed reminders under your firm’s direction. You have a clear view of what is pending without having to chase every update yourself.

You do not need to organize the backlog before asking for help. Sorting through it is part of the work we take on. Whether you need a focused cleanup or ongoing billing and administrative support, we can start with the records as they are.
