Mitratech Recognizes Elevate as a Certified Partner for Legal Invoice Review Services

Elevate’s legal bill review services enhance the overall legal spend management programs for Mitratech clients.

AUSTIN, Texas, December 15, 2015 – As legal departments are increasingly asked to do more with less, improving the efficiency of legal staff and reducing costs are critical goals for many General Counsel. In order to further enable General Counsel to deliver on these goals, Mitratech, the market-leading provider of Enterprise Legal Management (ELM) solutions, has recognized legal service provider Elevate as a Certified Partner to offer legal bill review services to Mitratech’s fast growing client base.

“Our leading spend management and e-Billing systems automate much of the invoicing process and can save up to 10% in legal costs, but even more value is generated when a team consistently reviews the adjustments made by the technology. We have found that many clients don’t have the time or resources to take this on, and Elevate’s services address precisely that need,” noted Jason Parkman, CEO of Mitratech.

Several Mitratech clients already use Elevate’s services and have achieved several benefits, including:

  • 3–10% additional cost savings as a result of more sophisticated and consistent review
  • Reassignment of in-house staff to other valuable work within the department
  • Reduced cycle time between invoice receipt and payment, enabling early payment discounts
  • Enhanced invoice management and cost control processes

“This partnership offers Mitratech clients the ability to strengthen enforcement of billing guidelines, capture greater savings, and minimize review effort on the part of in-house lawyers and staff,” says Pratik Patel, VP Legal Business Solutions at Elevate. “Combining our professional legal invoice review with Mitratech’s powerful tools measurably increases the value of any legal spend management program.”

Elevate is now the eighth partner within Mitratech’s Certified Partnership Program. All Mitratech Certified Partners are trained on Mitratech’s suite of products, engage in regular and consistent collaboration with the Mitratech team, and are equipped to deliver effective services and tools to the Mitratech client base.
