constitutional officer, if not indicated in the title of the matter, for which legal services are being
performed (e.g. Richard Roe v. Monroe County—EEO Claim); a description of the work
performed in enough detail so that each item is distinguishable from other listed items and
sufficient to allow COUNTY to determine the necessity for and reasonableness of the time
expended, the services performed, the project or task each service relates to, the subject and
purpose of each service, and the names of others who were present or communicated with in the
course of performing the service. For example, simply the word "research" is not acceptable,
more detail about the type of research and what was determined by the research is necessary.
7.2.2 Personnel

identify all persons who are not full -time lawyers employed by the ATTORNEY'S firm
(including paralegals, employees of ATTORNEY with their titles, subcontractors, independent
contractors, temporary employees, and outsourcing providers). Personnel who are not listed as
additional timekeepers will not be paid unless approved in writing under the requirements of this
Agreement.

Record the time expended by each time - keeper separately. In those situations where the minimum
billing increment exceeds the actual time spent on a task and several of these "minor" tasks are
performed, it is expected that the services will be aggregated until the total actual time spent
meets the minimum billing increment.
