Legal Spend Management
Automate invoice review for faster approvals and payments
Manually processing invoices from external legal counsel often involves a time-consuming and resource-intensive approach. Legal teams are actively exploring solutions to automate invoice review procedures for their staff attorneys and billing administrators in an effort to save time. CSC's Legal Spend Management platform helps teams streamline their operations and curtail unnecessary expenses by identifying and flagging charges that do not align with established billing guidelines.
