This session explains how law firms should respond when corporate clients add AI provisions to outside counsel guidelines, demand discounts for AI-assisted work, or reject invoice charges through automated e-billing systems. Attorneys will learn the ethics rules on AI billing in more than eight jurisdictions, how automated invoice review works, and how to structure alternative fee arrangements that meet client cost expectations while protecting firm revenue. Attendees will leave with compliant disclosure practices, fee models built for AI-era pricing, and clear strategies for handling e-billing rejections.

Ivanna MarchettiThis session gives attorneys at mid-size and smaller firms the data, pricing methods, and pitch strategies they need to compete for corporate work moving away from large firms. Attorneys will learn how to build alternative fee arrangements that win on value rather than rate alone, how to position their firms in panel programs and corporate RFPs, and how to overcome quality-perception bias with strong credentials and outcomes data. Attendees will leave with practical tools to identify, pursue, and close corporate work in a market that now favors smaller platforms.
