2| Role of the Paralegal:

Billing

 Attorney’s fees are fees charged
by an attorney for his or her

services. Both attorneys and
paralegals bill for their time
using the “billable hours”

concept

 Not all performed work is
considered billable, as most

administrative tasks are
considered non-billable

 Good timekeeping skills are
essential, in order to stay well-

organized and meet ethical
obligations

 Use the Timesheet throughout
the Program to track your time

for all work done for your five
assigned clients
