Billing Narrative Cleanup for Estate Planning Attorneys with DocuSign
Run billing narrative cleanup on autopilot inside DocuSign.
The Problem
LEDES bills for Trusts & Estates matters get kicked back by clients and e-billing portals for vague narratives — realization drops and the billing coordinator chases lawyers for rewrites.
What We Build in DocuSign
AI rewrites narratives to match each client's outside-counsel guidelines in WealthCounsel, flags block-billing, and pre-validates against the portal — write-down rate drops from 12% to under 3%. Purpose-built for teams running DocuSign — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
DocuSign Integration Approach
Audit your DocuSign configuration
We map the specific DocuSign objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your trusts & estates practice.
Build on the DocuSign API or agent
Integration happens inside DocuSign — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
Human-in-the-loop handoff
Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in DocuSign with enough context to act — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
Frequently asked
Does this billing narrative cleanup automation work natively in DocuSign?+

We work with your existing DocuSign setup. During discovery we map the specific objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation touches — no rip-and-replace required for trusts & estates teams.
Can DocuSign handle billing narrative cleanup on its own?+
DocuSign handles configuration; AI handles judgment. Native DocuSign workflows route deterministic tasks; our automation layer adds the AI judgment DocuSign doesn't ship out of the box — document classification, exception triage, drafting.
