Overview
The Counseling Code Set is part of the broader Uniform Task-Based Management System which also includes codes for litigation, bankruptcy and projects (including transactions and administrative filings). The Counseling Code Set provides flexibility in the Uniform Task-Based Management System. It is intended to capture time spent by attorneys in preparing and delivering general legal advice for all areas of law (e.g., tax, labor, corporate, regulatory, lobbying). The Counseling Code Set may also be used to capture time over a monthly billing period that is not otherwise attributable to a discrete matter, transaction, project or litigation. Communication between client and counsel about which code set to use at the onset of any matter is advisable.
