What it actually feels like

A day doing this work

A client forwards a stack of attorney and vendor invoices they've been paying without really checking. You go line by line, comparing against allowables and the engagement terms, and you note things worth a closer look — a possible duplicate, a likely non-allowable, a rate that looks high for the engagement. You total it up and send the worksheet. Now the client has a clear view of what may need a second look — and you've shown the value of a careful specialist.
