Questions
The things people ask
Still wondering? Send a note.
Contact usMost matters run on a fixed fee agreed in writing before work starts. Where a matter is open ended we set out a clear estimate first, so the budget holds no surprise.
Our clients run from first hires through to established mid market groups. The common thread is that they sign agreements often enough to want them handled properly.
For most matters we can open a file within two business days of the first call. Urgent deal work is triaged the same day wherever our calendar allows.
Yes. We regularly advise companies trading in several states and coordinate local counsel where a filing has to be made somewhere we are not admitted.
Many clients keep us on a monthly retainer as their outside counsel, which gives them a named lawyer to call rather than a queue to join.
We handle the legal side of trading: the agreements you sign, the way the company is structured and governed, the data rules you sit under, and the disagreements that occasionally follow.
