LegalTech for Family Law: AI, Ethics, and Billable Hours

Speakers

Anna Naidis Aparti.ai	Igor Sheremet Aparti.ai

Attendees learn and leave with a same-day audit checklist for their own billing, trust-accounting, and collections workflows — a structured way to spot where revenue is quietly leaking (unbilled time, write-offs, slow invoicing, retainer gaps) and which fixes satisfy Rules 1.5, 1.15, 1.4, and 5.3 rather than just tightening process for its own sake.

The payoff: fewer fee disputes, faster collections, and provable compliance.

Topics

• Audit billing under Rule 1.5's reasonableness standard — pinpoint where unbilled time, write-offs, and scope creep create lost revenue and fee-dispute exposure in family law matters
• Tighten trust account practices under Rule 1.15 — close the retainer-replenishment and reconciliation gaps that let revenue slip through, without creating commingling or recordkeeping violations
• Apply Rule 1.4's communication duty to invoicing and collections — structure fee updates and payment requests so collections stay timely without straining the client relationship
• Meet Rule 5.3 supervisory obligations — set oversight standards for nonlawyer staff and software tools, including AI-assisted time capture and billing, that touch revenue-critical workflows
• Evaluate automation and AI billing tools against your ethical duties — what to verify before adopting a tool that touches client funds, time entries, or client communications
