Yeah, its stated as hourly but the real deal is 8-8-8-8-8 across the board...and the manager stamping your timesheet loves this. For some reason lawyers are stuck with tracking every 15 minutes.
Because when you're billing for a day, you either worked on a day or you didn't. Not working on a day you're ostensibly billing for is anomalous enough that you're going to bring it up yourself with your client. For daily billing projects, timesheets are mostly just not a thing. We had a couple customers that used them, but they were staff-aug projects.
