Lawyers can't bill for every activity.  Unfortunately with the focus on billable time, young lawyers are missing out on a huge area in legal practice - the non-billable aspect.  Non-billable is a quick hit of advice in short segments, delivered frequently, to focus your attention on a specific issue, address a question, or just have a bit of a rant about an issue facing the legal profession.  Covering topics ranging from legal marketing, rainmaking, networking, career advice, professional development and legal practice generally - non-billable is foundational for young lawyers who know you can't charge the client for everything. Lawyers and attorneys everywhere will benefit from taking a few minutes out of their day to listen to Non-billable.
