Making Fixed Fees & Value Billing Work for You (and Your Clients!)
A Virtual Coffeehouse Workshop
February 24, 2021 at 2 p.m. Eastern
Accredited for 1 hour of Professionalism Content by the Law Societies of British Columbia & Ontario
Are you tired of counting hours and getting push-back on fees?
Discover how ditching the billable hour system can be beneficial for both your practice and your clients.
Fixed fees and value billing allow you to align your interests with those of your clients...and eliminate the uncertainty and the surprises that often happen with hourly billing.
You'll be able to simplify your accounting and encourage improved collaboration and communication with clients who may be concerned about every phone call or email adding to their ultimate bill. When clients aren’t watching the clock, they’re likely to provide more detailed instructions, allowing you to serve them better.
In this Virtual Coffeehouse workshop session, Gimbal’s Karen Dunn Skinner will be joined by Peter Carayiannis of Conduit Law and Digby Leigh of DL&Co. Both guests are lawyers who have implemented value billing systems with great success in their firms.
You will learn:
- How to ensure you're making money on your fixed-fee work
- How to use value billing to provide more proactive services for your clients
- How you'll benefit when you can focus on the practice of law rather than the clock
- How to use value billing to improve client relations and get paid faster!
Peter and Digby both have decades of experience as attorneys and are painfully familiar with the billable hour system. They’ve both been able to streamline their workflows and offer value billing, leading to happier clients and increased profitability.
They’ll be ready to answer any questions you may have about how to implement value billing in your own practice.

Our Mission
We believe every lawyer should be able to build a profitable, efficient, and fulfilling practice...without spending every waking moment at work. But we recognize that the playing field isn't even, and not everyone has access to the skills they need.
We support lawyers in emerging markets, and new lawyers (up to 5 years of call) in Canada who identify as Black, Indigenous, or People of Colour.
If that's you, Virtual Coffeehouse is completely free. Just fill out the form below and hit Submit.
Everyone who purchases a workshop or becomes a member of Virtual Coffeehouse Insiders helps support our mission, and that means more lawyers building efficient and successful practices around the world. For that, we are very grateful!
