How does Invoice Approval Management streamline your billing process?

Invoice Approval Management is designed to automate and optimize the final steps of legal invoice processing. Once invoices are reviewed for compliance and accuracy, this feature routes them through configurable approval paths based on matter type, department requirements, or internal workflows. By integrating with your accounts payable (AP) systems and matter management software, LSG's solution reduces manual handoffs and bottlenecks that typically delay payment cycles. Approvers receive only the invoices that require their attention, while compliant invoices can move forward automatically, helping your organization shorten payment timelines and minimize overhead. Real-time status tracking and clear audit trails further enhance control, making it easier to monitor every step from review through approval to payment authorization. The result is faster processing, improved vendor relationships, and strengthened financial governance.

What is Legal Bill Review and how does it cut legal spend?

Legal Bill Review is the backbone of LSG's AI Bill Review Services, using advanced machine learning and expert oversight to analyze every line item in submitted invoices for guideline compliance and accuracy. This continuous, real-time review compares invoices against service level agreements (SLAs), billing policies, and pricing benchmarks to detect mathematical errors, non-compliant entries, duplicate charges, or vague descriptions. LSG combines proprietary AI with legal fee auditing expertise to correct or reduce charges before submission to approval, significantly driving down legal spend while improving billing consistency. Clients typically see measurable savings and higher billing compliance through this structured review process. By automating what was once a time-intensive manual task, Legal Bill Review frees up internal teams and enhances transparency across law firms and outside counsel engagements.

Can workflows be tailored to match your unique legal operations needs?

Yes. LSG's AI Bill Review Services include robust Workflow Customization capabilities that adapt to your organization's unique operational, compliance, and approval requirements. Rather than a one-size-fits-all solution, workflows can be configured to reflect matter types, vendor profiles, legal spend thresholds, department responsibilities, and approval hierarchies. Custom rulesets control how invoices are triaged, escalated, reviewed, and finalized, aligning with existing enterprise systems and internal policies. This flexibility ensures that automation complements your current processes rather than replacing them, enhancing adoption and effectiveness. Whether you need multi-stage approvals, exceptions handling, or conditional routing based on compliance flags, customized workflows help your legal and finance teams work more efficiently and consistently. By designing review paths that mirror your internal controls, Workflow Customization not only improves speed but also reinforces governance and audit readiness.

How does Data Analysis support smarter legal spend decisions?

Data Analysis within LSG's AI Bill Review Services provides actionable insights into your legal spend, billing compliance trends, and vendor performance. After invoices are reviewed and approved, the platform generates detailed analytics that include spend breakdowns by law firm, timekeeper, matter, and task codes, enabling you to uncover patterns that might otherwise be hidden. These insights empower your finance and legal operations teams to benchmark performance, identify high-cost areas, evaluate guideline effectiveness, and make data-driven decisions about vendor engagement or matter budgeting. Interactive dashboards and custom reports deliver both high-level summaries and granular drill-downs, helping stakeholders monitor compliance, forecast costs, and optimize resource allocation. Data Analysis turns raw billing data into strategic intelligence, improving operational efficiency and long-term cost control.
