Usually, an introductory video meeting.
You’ll tell us about your business needs: what you are trying to achieve, the commercial context and the decisions that need to be made.
We agree on the scope before any substantive work begins.
For clearly defined projects, we can often agree on the questions to be addressed, the expected deliverables, and the price in advance.
For negotiations, transactions, regulatory matters and other assignments that develop over time, we agree a working model appropriate to the matter.
Our quote will confirm the necessary steps and price.
Our general terms and conditions always apply to our services.
Our clients have direct access to experienced lawyers who understand both the legal issues and the technology and commercial environment in which they arise.
We aim to distinguish between issues that require action, risks that can be managed and points that should not consume unnecessary management or negotiating attention.
Legal analysis is useful only if it helps you decide what to do.
Our advice therefore focuses on the practical implications of the legal position, the available options and our recommendations.
Depending on the assignment, the output may include a written assessment, prioritised risk analysis, proposed contract changes, negotiation positions, management recommendations or a roadmap for implementation.
Where appropriate, we can continue from assessment into execution.
This may include negotiating an agreement, implementing contract structures, supporting a product launch, developing governance or documentation, assisting in a procurement process or supporting management in a regulatory matter.
For clients with recurring needs, we can also provide ongoing specialist support.
An important part of our approach is clarity about the scope of the assignment, costs and how the work is progressing. We maintain an ongoing dialogue and let you know if circumstances arise that materially affect the scope, priorities or expected cost.
We aim for high quality in both our legal advice and our work with clients. If something does not work as expected, we encourage you to raise it early so that it can be addressed constructively.
