Kelley Drye & Warren LLP is a leading American law firm of over 375 attorneys with offices in New York, Washington D.C., Stamford, Parsippany, Chicago, and Brussels and with an affiliated office in Mumbai. As of 2007, the firm is ranked among the top 200 (#111) by The American Lawyer, with over $214 million in gross revenue. In order to keep up with the costly operational demands of electronic billing, Kelley Drye wanted to improve the process and empower its finance team with current tools, versus adding more staff to handle the increased workload caused by law firm electronic billing. eBillingHub will serve as the basis for gaining not only the operational benefits, but the also the visibility through its reports and dashboards, key to understanding in real time the ebilling activity.

"Moving from a costly, manual process, with ever increasing workload to an automated e-billing delivery and management system, with an easy to use, single web interface and process for the firm will pay enormous benefits for us," said Scott Gutterman, Director of Finance of Kelley Drye. "In order to be successful with electronic billing, a firm needs to address more than the increased workload; it needs to be able to simplify and standardize the process."

The eBillingHub helps law firms speed up the collections process, reduce the complexity of electronic invoice submissions, eliminate billing backlogs and common submission errors, and minimize or eliminate the need for additional staff to administer electronic billing. For law firms, using the eBillingHub results in improved cash flow, increased partner distributions, and enhanced client service.

"We are delighted to welcome Kelley Drye to our growing list of customers who are realizing that law firm electronic billing is more that a workload issue and that hiring more people is not the answer" stated Greg Coticchia, eBillingHub's CEO. "Forward thinking firms like Kelley Drye understand that they can take control of their growing electronic billing volume and related vendors their clients choose, and actually benefit from eBilling by addressing the business process. By adding the right tools like the eBillingHub, eBilling can actually become a competitive advantage"

Considered the defacto standard for law firm electronic billing, eBillingHub delivers its law firm ebilling solution as Software as a Service (SaaS) built on a service-oriented architecture (SOA), providing Web services standards for its integration with practice management systems such as Thomson Elite and ProLaw, ADERANT, RainMaker and others. With hundreds of customers and service providers using eBillingHub and its LEDES Toolkit™, the eBillingHub has established itself as the leader in simplifying the e-Billing process for law firms worldwide.
