Dear Counsel,
Matter position. 10442-0007, Project Beacon: $190,365.00 billed to date with this invoice against a $120,000.00 budget (159%). Invoice 2298471 dated July 2, 2026, $62,028.00 as billed.
We have reviewed the invoice against our billing requirements and would like to discuss the following three items.
1. Billing practices: block billing
Entry: "Draft closing agenda and signature packet index; review lender approval drafts; analyze escrow funding instructions; prepare officer certificates for the closing set; finalize funds flow memorandum."
Proposal: adjust this charge from $9,198.00 to $0.00 pending a task-by-task breakdown. Basis: block-billed entries cannot be assessed for reasonableness.
2. Travel: non-working travel time
Entry: "Travel from San Francisco to New York for the pre-closing logistics session."
Proposal: adjust this charge from $6,700.00 to $0.00 (reduction of $6,700.00). Basis: travel time is not billable unless substantive work was done in transit.
3. Expenses: firm overhead
Entries: "Westlaw legal research access", "Harvey AI subscription" and "Internal photocopying"
Proposal: adjust the group total from $2,785.00 to $0.00 (reduction of $2,785.00). Basis: research subscriptions, AI tools and internal copying are overhead absorbed in hourly rates, not direct matter expenses.
If any of these are direct, matter-specific costs, please send the supporting detail and we will revisit.
Please review the items above and provide clarification or revised billing where appropriate. If you believe any item has been raised in error, please respond with supporting detail.
Best regards,
Alex Morgan

Email intake
Every organization gets a dedicated intake address. Firms email invoices the way they always have; parsing and review run on arrival.
Your guidelines, enforced
Import your outside counsel guidelines from PDF or Word. AI extracts the clauses and maps each one to the check that enforces it, an AI review, or the reviewer checklist. Name the firm the document is for and a discount clause is scoped to that firm. The letter cites your own language back.
Works inside Claude
A full MCP connector: audit an invoice, resolve flags and draft the review letter from a Claude conversation, with the same permissions as the app. An add-on at $200 per organization per month.
Budgets, estimates and engagement letters
Set matter budgets, collect work in progress from firms before it becomes a bill and report it as a month-end accrual, and hold fee estimates with their phase breakdowns next to what actually arrives. Import the engagement letter and the approved rates and negotiated discount are enforced on every invoice.
Finance-ready approvals
Approving an invoice notifies finance with the payable amount, GL coding and the invoice attached. Every decision lands in the audit log.
Legal RFPs
Send an RFP to one firm or the whole panel, compare proposals level to level, score blind, and award. The award becomes the terms every invoice is checked against. Walk through the RFP demo.
Matters and legal requests
The business asks Legal from a link, the request becomes a matter, and its tasks, key dates, linked documents and people sit beside the invoices. Walk through the matters demo.
Multi-currency, multi-jurisdiction
USD, CAD, GBP and EUR invoices keep their own currency end to end, and review explanations adapt to US, Canadian and UK billing practice.
That is the whole loop
Invoice in, checks run, flags evidenced, decisions logged, letter sent. Setting it up on your own invoices takes about ten minutes. The trial runs 14 days with no card, Starter is $99 per seat per month after that, and there is a 60-day money-back guarantee.
