Legal Billing Clerk

Legal Billing Clerk (San Francisco, CA)

LHH is teaming up with a professional services organization within the legal industry in San Francisco, CA in search of a Legal Billing Clerk to support attorneys and internal accounting teams with full-cycle client billing operations.

This role plays a critical part in ensuring accurate, timely, and compliant billing in a high-volume legal environment. The organization offers a collaborative, detail-focused office setting where accountability and follow-through are essential. You will have hands-on ownership of the billing process, exposure to complex billing structures, and responsibility for producing final invoices—not just supporting the process. This is a strong opportunity for someone who takes pride in precision and seeing work through to completion.

The ideal candidate brings prior legal billing and eBilling experience and is comfortable managing multiple matters simultaneously. You have a sharp eye for detail, especially when tracking rejected invoices and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. You are confident working independently, generating detailed reports, and navigating billing systems while partnering closely with attorneys and accounting stakeholders.

Key Responsibilities:

• Produce and submit legal invoices from start to finish, including complex eBilling submissions
• Manage a high-volume workload of approximately 1,500 invoices per month
• Review and edit pre-bills based on attorney feedback and client billing guidelines
• Submit invoices through multiple eBilling platforms and resolve rejections or appeals
• Track work in progress, outstanding pre-bills, billing reductions, and carry-forwards
• Prepare detailed billing and reporting analyses, including bill rates, rate increases, and WIP
• Maintain accurate client, matter, and billing instruction records
• Follow up on rejected or unpaid invoices to ensure timely resolution
• Partner with attorneys and accounting teams to resolve billing discrepancies

Qualifications:

• Minimum of 2 years of legal eBilling experience required
• Hands-on experience producing invoices independently (not support-only billing) required
• Experience with legal billing software required (ProLaw preferred; other systems acceptable)
• Experience working with multiple eBilling platforms required
• Strong understanding of client billing guidelines and rate compliance required
• High level of accuracy, organization, and attention to detail required
• Proficiency with Microsoft Excel and reporting required
• Ability to work occasional overtime as needed
