Should you elect to draft Bills of Costs in a particular matter, you will be required to set aside the time to attend to this arduous and protracted process. Time which you as a legal practitioner, more often than not, do not have to spare, and which could be spent more effectively and lucratively.

However, the fact remains that you had spent your billable hours, knowledge, expertise and resources on the matter, and it is therefore of paramount importance that you not only recover every cent in allowable fees and disbursements through an expertly drafted bill, but also that this be done as expeditiously as possible.

Ultimately though, due to time constraints and having to attend to more urgent issues, the drafting of a bills is placed on the proverbial back burner, and delayed for prolonged and hardly affordable periods of time because you, quite simply, did not have the time or opportunity to attend thereto.
