AFADATA^® is a patented, one of a kind, financial management tool for legal matters. It analyzes invoice and budgeting data, and builds cost models to show what different items of legal work should cost on an “all in” basis. Far beyond rates and discounts, AFADATA analyzes law firm efficiency, and incorporates benchmark comparisons (blinded, aggregated) to identify savings opportunities based on broader market trends.
