"Easy to use billing software"
4/5
What do you like best about LexisNexis CounselLink?

You can track exact spends for each matter. Data/billing entries are very straightforward, making the process of uploading a bill easy, even if you have many. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LexisNexis CounselLink?

Although it is easy to upload a bill, it is time consuming if you manually enter the data. I have not figured out how to upload bills using a LEDES file, even though I hear this makes things a bit easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LexisNexis CounselLink:

As a user who has a client using CounselLink for their invoice processing, I am pleased with the software. I can upload bills (although time consuming) manually, track their status within our client's accounting department, and figure out when they will be paid based on their internal guidelines. I have used other software (legal tracker) that is quicker and offers the same benefits, but I have nothing bad to say about CounselLink. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LexisNexis CounselLink solving and how is that benefiting you?

CounselLink makes it easy to track where a bill is in our client's process. It is useful in order to see when our invoices will be paid, which is good to know in a small law firm (cash-basis) environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
