Modern law practice requires modern pricing. At ABA Techshow 2025, Mathew Kerbis sat down with Scott Leigh—co-founder and CEO of AltFee and winner of the 2024 ABA Techshow Startup Alley competition—to explore how law firms can shift from hourly billing to flat and alternative fee arrangements.
In this insightful conversation, Scott unpacks the evolution of legal pricing models in the context of advancing technology and growing client expectations. He and Mathew discuss how flat fees and alternative pricing structures not only improve transparency for clients but also drive profitability and efficiency for law firms. The conversation offers actionable tactics for legal professionals looking to modernize their pricing strategies in an increasingly competitive legal landscape.
Whether you’re just starting to explore alternatives to the billable hour or are actively working to refine your pricing approach, this discussion provides practical insights on aligning service value with pricing structure.
