The balance summary calculates totals by working lawyer, not by responsible or originating lawyer.  It contains two sections.  The first section summarizes the lawyer’s billable time, unbilled (work in progress) hours, fees and disbursements, billed hours, receipts, bill write-offs, unbilled (work in progress) write-offs, and billed fee and disbursement variance.  Each category is summarized both for the current month and for the year to date.  The second section lists the lawyer’s total time entered by day for the current month, with amounts broken down into billable and non-billable time.

Lawyer reports include information on files that have been closed.  Totals are calculated for the year to date and do not include balance forward amounts from the prior year.
