Budget Your Research

Today’s tip is about budgets. For many law firms, fall is budget season. Why not think about budgeting for individual research projects?

Things you can consider:
– what format do you need downloaded cases and materials in? Free and fee sources offer different outputs so do your gathering once.
– how much research time so you have to het an answer? If you only have an hour, spend it (on commentary) wisely.
– have you (or someone you work with) answered this question? Updating work product you have makes for a fast and inexpensive research budget

Happy planning!
