But you are still billing by the hour. 8 hours in a day. Do work for 4 clients or work for 8 clients and get the same amount of money?

There are a few law firms that are heavily automated. But they are mostly larger, class action, pay per result, type law firms vs your standard law firm.

Yeah, I worked with one of those "we get paid if you get paid" firms. Professional, courteous, & every conversation we had was completely to the point. First call was with a receptionist. Spent maybe ~30 minutes talking to the lawyer total. They already optimize not to waste time.
