LEGAL SERVICES

Service Description

We offer superior services with a radically different fee model from a typical law firm hourly billing model. Simply stated, we don’t have time to deal with 6-minute time sheets. We’re busy providing legal solutions. Our services are provided on a fixed-fee basis. The time-based billing metric discourages efficiencies – it encourages firms to overstaff matters, add marginally useful services and draw out engagements that might be brought to a swifter conclusion. Our clients purchase our skill and not our time. Our clients do not care how long it takes us to complete the assignment; they care about the value they receive. As we see it, fixed fees provide a number of advantages to our clients: - Our clients are able to budget for their legal costs. - Since time is not a cost factor, our clients do not hesitate to share information with us, which makes our advice more calibrated. We do not keep track of, nor do we bill for, miscellaneous expenses like domestic phone and fax charges, photocopying, secretarial overtime and ordinary U.S. mail as do most law firms. Other expenses are billed at cost.
