Open the Client Information, go to the Bill Arrangement 1 tab.  Set up an Absolute Flat fee for the fees, and (VERY IMPORTANT - because it is NOT the default) set the duration to Job.  This will charge the client a one time fee of $3,000 on the first bill.  How much time the attorney enters will not affect the price, but will show on the bill if you usually show time entries.

Hope this helps.

Re Flat-Fee Set up
What would you do in a case where you have already issued 2 invoices to the client and, after-the-fact, the attorney advises you that he wants it set up as a flat fee? I cannot undo two invoices. I would appreciate your suggestions.
Thank you very much.

You could set a flat fee for the remainder based on the total less the billed. Another option would be to create a new matter and copy/duplicate all the slips to the new matter than close or purge the existing matter
