Anyway, my point is that while there is more work to be done for litigation in terms of research, this translates to higher billings and, consequently, higher bonuses as an associate.
His point is that research is generally (and fairly) not a billable. Not unless your case turns on something like whether cryptocurrency can be considered private property, etc.

I guess if you work for B4 then most of your caseload turns on such esoteric points of law. But up to a point lah. Cannot be I turn to Lawnet every time for eg frustration/force majeure for each case like as though I reading for the first time. Client sure will ask you what - have you done this before? In your experience, etc etc.
