How we handle it
At some point the legal to-do list never gets shorter: a contract a week, a new hire, a lender, a lease renewal. That's when a monthly plan beats calling a lawyer one matter at a time.
You get a named attorney who knows your business, a direct line, faster turnaround, a compliance calendar we keep for you and a quarterly check-in. Flat-fee projects come at a plan discount.
Call us when
- You send or sign more than a couple of contracts a month
- You've hired your first employees
- You're taking on a lender or an investor
- You keep putting off the legal to-do list
- You want one lawyer who already knows the history
What's included, and what it costs
Always included
- A named attorney and a direct line

Two things owners ask us about
Read the guides-
Keep one folder
Keep every signed contract, lease and filing in one shared folder. It makes a plan, a sale or a dispute faster and cheaper.

Calendar the boring filings
Annual reports and registered agent renewals are small, but missing them can put a company out of good standing.
Not legal advice. These tips are general information for small business owners. Facts matter, so talk to a lawyer about your situation before acting on them.

What happens if I use more hours than my plan includes?
We tell you before you go over, never after. Extra time is billed at the plan's discounted hourly rate, or you can move up a plan for the month.
Is a monthly plan cheaper than paying per matter?
For owners with steady legal work, usually yes, because plan discounts and faster answers add up. If your legal needs come once or twice a year, flat-fee projects are the better deal, and we'll say so.
Can you handle employment questions?
We handle everyday questions: offer letters, contractor versus employee, handbooks. For a serious employment claim we bring in a trusted employment lawyer and stay involved.
