FAQ

Do I need Excel?

Yes. FlatFee Guard is delivered as .xlsx workbooks designed for Microsoft Excel.

No. It is intentionally focused on matter economics and profitability analysis.

What should I use for hourly cost?

Your internal fully loaded cost of producing an hour of work, not the client-facing billing rate.
