FAQs

Do you offer flat fees?

Yes—many matters are offered at transparent flat rates. We’ll scope custom work up front so there are no surprises.

How fast can you turn something around?

Most reviews return within 1–3 business days. If you have a deadline, tell us up front and we’ll confirm timing.

Do you handle litigation?

No. We provide transactional counsel only (no litigation). We can support negotiation strategy and contract interpretation, but we do not appear in court.

Can you work with my existing documents?

Absolutely. We’ll redline what you have, explain risks in plain English, and provide negotiation language you can use.
