Behind every profitable law firm is a cash-aware team—employees who understand that what gets billed isn’t always what gets banked. When everyone from admin to senior lawyers understands how their actions impact cash flow, the results speak for themselves.
✅ Why Cash Awareness Matters
Faster Billing: Lawyers log time promptly. Invoices go out without delay.
Better Collections: Admin staff follow up on payments professionally and persistently.
Stronger Profits: Less unbilled time. Fewer write-offs. More money in the bank.
✅ What a Cash-Aware Team Looks Like
Fee earners know the difference between WIP and receivables.
Admin staff track debtor days and lockup trends.
Everyone understands how delays—whether in timesheets or invoicing—affect the firm’s financial health.
✅ How to Build One
Train your team on cash flow basics, using real examples.
Share monthly metrics like collections vs. billables.
Celebrate wins like reduced lockup days or early payments.
💡 Bottom Line: A cash-aware team doesn’t just work in the business—they help fund it.
