We break down our work into clearly defined stages, starting with an upfront fixed-scope engagement such as a contract review or planning strategy. You will receive a clear estimate for each stage, with no obligation to proceed further.
At key decision points, we give you the opportunity to pause, pivot or proceed based on updated estimates and legal insight. You remain in control of strategy and spend at all times.
Our estimates are realistic and inclusive, covering the time it takes to provide quality advice, respond to questions and coordinate with your team. If circumstances change, we do not surprise you with unexpected bills. We will raise any scope adjustments early, so you can make informed decisions before additional costs are incurred.
