So you've shaken hands, and relations are at an all-time high! Now's the time to secure your position with a formal contract to lay down an indisputable framework for the future.
In this situation, our service would include:
Whether it's to get the best terms you can for a new contract, or to try and resolve a dispute on an existing contract, it can often be wise to involve an experienced negotiator.
We can handle the negotiations on your behalf within the parameters you define, or (if you prefer) stay on the sidelines and just be on hand to help you devise and implement your own best strategy and tactics.
Either way, we have extensive experience of negotiating in commercial situations, and can help you to secure the best result.
Maybe you have been asked to sign a contract by another company. Maybe it's a contract that's been prepared by their lawyers.
Maybe you are already bound by a contract, and you need to know what it really means in a given situation - or if you can get out of it!
Or maybe you just feel you need a second opinion.
In all these situations, we can give you the advice you need.
Where it is practicable for us to assess the time likely to be involved, we will offer a fixed price service.
If this is not practicable, we will offer an estimate, and if it later appears that the cost will be higher than estimated, we will let you know this at the earliest moment.
We aim to cut out the unnecessary 'invisible' expense and overhead that is associated with 'firms' (and which their clients' have to pay for!), and to give a one-to-one, dedicated service to our clients which is both personal and effective; we aim to avoid the situation where the lawyer has to divert his attentions to a multitude of other unconnected legal matters, with ongoing pressure of having to achieve high fee-earning timesheets for the 'firm'.
Where neither fixed price nor estimate are given, our charges will be based on an hourly rate, which will depend on the type of work involved.
We are able to keep our charges realistic because we can keep our overheads low. We are focused on providing the services of drafting, negotiation, and advice only; we do not handle litigation, and we do not hold clients' money. We are committed to offering value for money.
Payment is accepted by Visa, Mastercard, Switch, and most other credit/charge/debit cards (excl. Discover & Diners).
For the young business, we can provide the service of an In-House Legal Department.
We have extensive experience, both in the law and in business, and we can make the benefits of that experience (common-sense and common law!), together with sound tactical and strategic guidance, available to you and to your business.
If you think this might be of interest to you, let us know!
