On any given day, the 100 largest law firms in the United
States average of over $16 Million of capital tied up financing
out-of-pocket costs on behalf of clients. To allow law firms of all sizes to stop
providing free loans to clients, DMA provides Disbursement Manager™
software.
The DMA Concept is simple -- We recommend that law firms adapt the
following policy: "If our firm advances
cash or credit on behalf of any client for more than 30-45
days, the cost ("float") for that loan must be billed to the
applicable client, to avoid burdening the firm and our other clients
with that cost."
The effect on the law firm is dramatic -
in the first year, DMA can generate additional capital equivalent to
a one-time gross revenue increase of over 10%. The DMA Solution
is innovative, ethical and equitable to all clients.
NATIONAL LAW
JOURNAL addresses Hard Disbursement
Management - The Sept 25, 2006 edition of the
National Law Journal
(Page S3) features the DMA approach to managing hard
disbursements in an article titled "Lawyers Become Unwilling Bankers" in
the Business of Law section. Written by a managing partner who
successfully implemented this concept, the article clearly states
the case for getting a handle on this
issue.
The DMA Solution is easy to install, and requires virtually
no training. Let us
prove it to you. Call Disbursement Management Associates, LLC
