Description

There’s a way to make your clients happier and earn more money at the same time. It’s simple: accept credit cards and take payments online. With each passing year, fewer clients want to pay by check, instead choosing to earn points and use credit for the majority of their purchases. From a law firm perspective, taking credit cards increases the likelihood you get paid. And the statistics show that you’ll get paid sooner too, which increases your total revenue for the year.

Learning Objectives:

• Become an educated consumer by understanding how payment processor fees work.
• Learn about client payment trends and statistics related to online and electronic payments.
• Find out how credit card processors work with law firms to safely handle trust deposits.
• Know the do’s and don’ts of safely and legally passing on credit card fees to your clients.
