Effective Hourly Rate After Admin Calculator

Your headline rate is not what you earn per hour worked. See the real number once admin and write-offs are in. It’s free, runs in your browser, and computes to no one until you ask for the report.

Your real effective hourly rate
$162/hr
You bill from 30 of 50 weekly hours at $300, collect 90% of that, and the admin hours earn nothing — so every hour worked really returns $162. Ward reclaims the admin half.
Billable hours / week30 hrs
Weekly collected revenue$8,100
Headline rate$300/hr
Effective rate per hour worked$162/hr

Enter your details and we’ll email your full report and may follow up about LexSteward. We never store claimant data.

An illustrative estimate from the numbers you enter — not financial, tax, or legal advice, and not a quote. Nothing computes to anyone until you choose to email yourself the report; if you do, we relay it to LexSteward to send the report and may follow up, and we never store claimant data. This is an illustrative estimate for general informational purposes only. It is not legal, tax, or financial advice, it does not create an attorney–client relationship, and it is not a quote, promise, prediction, or guarantee of any benefit, amount, eligibility, deadline, or outcome. Figures are based on published government sources as of the date shown and change over time; results may not reflect current law or the facts of your situation. Do not rely on this tool; consult a licensed attorney before taking or refraining from any action.
What this proves

Reclaim the admin hours and your effective rate climbs toward your headline rate — that’s what Ward is for.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Effective Hourly Rate After Admin Calculator show?

Your headline rate is not what you earn per hour worked. See the real number once admin and write-offs are in. It runs entirely in your browser on the numbers you enter.

Do you store my firm’s numbers?

No claimant data, ever. The math runs in your browser and computes to no one — until you choose to email yourself the full report, which relays your details to LexSteward so we can send it and follow up. That’s a business opt-in, not stored claimant data.

Is this financial or legal advice?

No. It’s an illustrative estimate from your own inputs to help you size a decision — not a quote, an audit, or advice. Confirm the numbers against your real invoices and books.

Can LexSteward actually fix this?

That’s the point of the platform: one flat-fee system with the marketing engine, case management, billing, client portal, and a built-in AI (Ward) that does the routine work — so the cost, admin, and leakage this tool surfaces have one place to go.
