My company has just recently signed up to switch to Smokeball.  Anyone have any suggestions concerning the best way to walk through the transition from our old system to using Smokeball?

Hi fellow Smokeballers I am new to SB and was wondering if there are any other personal injury practitioners out there (preferably based in QLD)? Would be great to bounce some ideas off each other. If so, please get in touch! CheersJane :) 

Does anyone bill clients according to who does the work? ie: Solicitor (hourly rate), paralegal (hourly rate)?if so, how much do you charge for a Paralegal?
