UTBMS Codes

Uniform Task-Based Management System (UTBMS) Codes

UTBMS codes are designed to standardize legal billing tasks. UTBMS codes are generally used with the Legal Electronic Data Exchange Standard (LEDES) format invoices. Some corporate clients require attorneys and law firms to submit invoices in the LEDES format. LEDES and UTBMS codes are generally not required by individual clients. Invoices in PDF format are generally preferred by most clients. CaseFox LEDES billing and legal billing software offers preconfigured ABA UTBMS codes. Additionally, CaseFox offers custom task and activity codes that allow users to create their own code groups. CaseFox also offers time entry validation according to pre-configured rules for Task-Activity code pairs.
