How it works
step one
Get in touch.

Initial discussion.
Depending on the matter, we’ll either have an initial discussion or gather further details by email to understand what’s required and any key considerations.
step three
Scope & quote.
Before we proceed, you will receive a clear scope of work and fixed fee (where possible), along with a Costs Agreement and Costs Disclosure.

Work begins.
Once confirmed, we will prepare your documents or advice.
Turn-around times depend on our capacity and we will communicate this to you. You will need to pay your invoice before you receive your documents and/or advice.
step five
Finalisation.
Unless there is an ongoing dispute, you will receive your documents via email and we will likely set up a meeting to discuss these and make any necessary refinements.
