Tracked hours flow straight into a polished invoice — no copy-paste, no manual math.
A law firm needs time entries tied to the work that caused them: the matter, task, responsible person, date, and description. In an Asana workflow, the task carries the work context, while Everhour records time, billable status, rates, and reporting detail against that task. That structure keeps review tied to the assignment instead of a separate spreadsheet.
The practical outcome is a clean set of time records for legal work already organized in Asana. Attorneys, paralegals, and staff can record time on the task they worked on, then admins can review billable and non-billable totals by matter, person, task, or date before billing or internal reporting starts.
Law firms lose time during billing review when every entry reaches the reviewer as a plain hour total. Billable, non-billable, and administrative work need separate treatment before totals roll into an invoice or matter report. A client call, filing review, and internal staffing discussion can sit in the same matter, but they should not receive the same billing treatment.
Set the project billing status first, then mark specific tasks non-billable when they support the matter without becoming client charges. For time-and-materials work, custom task rates or member-rate exceptions handle work that prices differently from the default matter rate. That setup gives reviewers a specific place to check billing status instead of editing totals at the end.
A useful legal time entry names the person, date, task, duration, billable status, and description. The description should identify the work without exposing unnecessary detail in a client-facing invoice line. A task named "Draft discovery responses" with a time entry for 1.5 hours gives the billing reviewer more context than a weekly total attached only to a matter name.
Review also needs consistency. Daily entries reduce memory-based reconstruction, and task-level logging keeps time aligned with the assignments the team already manages in Asana. Admin reports should separate billable time, non-billable time, billable amount, and cost so partners can review write-downs, staffing patterns, and matter profitability from the same time layer.
A one-off check works for a single matter, a short week, or a quick review of hours before a draft invoice. It is enough when the firm only needs to total a small batch of entries and confirm that the descriptions make sense. The risk appears when time must support repeated billing, rate exceptions, approvals, and matter-level reporting.
A managed workflow fits firms that need tracked Asana task time to feed billing and reporting without re-keying. Everhour supports billable and non-billable time through project billing status, task-level non-billable controls, custom task rates, member-rate exceptions, and admin reports for billable time, non-billable time, billable amount, and cost.

Use Asana tasks for the work item, then keep time entries tied to that task. Matter name, task title, assignee, date, duration, billable status, and description give reviewers enough context to approve time and prepare billing. Broad weekly totals make review slower because the billing decision is separated from the work record.
Daily tracking gives cleaner legal time records because the task, date, and work description stay close to the actual work. Weekly reconstruction increases the chance of vague descriptions, missed non-billable work, and incorrect matter allocation. A weekly review can still happen, but the entries should be created as the work occurs.
Record non-billable legal work on the relevant matter or internal task instead of leaving it out. That keeps the full cost of the matter visible while excluding the time from client charges. Non-billable records are useful for staffing review, profitability analysis, and write-down discussions because they show effort that did not become billable revenue.
Vague descriptions create the most billing friction. An entry such as "research" forces the reviewer to reconstruct the task and gives the client little context. A better entry connects the time to a specific assignment, such as reviewing a motion draft or preparing discovery notes, while keeping sensitive detail out of the client-facing wording.
Custom rates matter when different people, tasks, or matter phases bill at different amounts. A partner review, associate draft, paralegal filing task, and non-billable internal meeting can sit under one matter but require different billing treatment. Rate rules should be set before invoice review so totals reflect the engagement terms.
Everhour lets admins set project billing status, mark specific tasks non-billable, apply custom task rates, and use member-rate exceptions for different legal roles. Reports can show billable time, non-billable time, billable amount, and cost so reviewers can check matter totals before invoicing.
Everhour reporting can group Asana-tracked time by project, task, member, date range, and billing fields. Admins can export reports to Excel/XLSX, CSV, or PDF, giving billing teams a review file that separates client charges from internal cost and non-billable effort.
Track approved matter hours, billing status, and rate exceptions from the Asana tasks legal teams already use. Everhour gives law firms cleaner billable review and reporting.
