Law-firm payment & billing

Payment plan for law firms, monthly support, and white-label setup.

Law-firm billing is separate from public-client payment. Firms pay RealEstateExpt for administrative support, intake processing, document coordination, missing-item tracking, overflow support, and client-hub workflow support.

Billing timing

When does a law firm pay?

The payment schedule depends on whether the firm chooses per-file support, a monthly overflow desk, or a white-label client hub.
