Time
In the time drop down menu the firm can nominate how many minutes per unit.
Firms have been known to use 1 minute units, 6 minute units, 10 minute units and 15 minute units. At Wise Owl Legal we strongly recommend using 6 minute units, unless there is a good reason to use otherwise. Whilst 6 minute units may seem confusing at first, once it is understood it is extremely practical.
| Units | Minutes |
|---|---|
| 1 | 6 |
| 2 | 12 |
| 3 | 18 |
| 4 | 24 |
| 5 | 30 |
| 6 | 36 |
| 7 | 42 |
| 8 | 48 |
| 9 | 54 |
| 10 | 60 |
