Set the price in writing before work begins

We advise on U.S. federal law and the laws of New York. For other U.S. states and European jurisdictions, we coordinate with vetted local counsel admitted in the relevant bar, billed transparently within the engagement.

Every engagement is preceded by a conflicts check across our active matters and prior representations. If a conflict exists, we say so and decline. Where appropriate, we can refer the matter to qualified outside counsel.

If a matter expands, we agree on the new scope and price in writing before any additional work begins. You see the change order, you approve it, then we proceed. No surprise invoices.

We accept ACH and major credit cards through an IOLTA-compliant payment processor. Trust deposits are held in a segregated client trust account and applied against invoices as work is completed, in line with New York Rules of Professional Conduct.

Communications with us are protected by attorney-client privilege. We use enterprise-grade systems with U.S. or E.U. data residency at the client's election. Access is limited to the lawyers and staff working on the matter.

Most fixed-fee engagements begin within forty-eight hours of an executed engagement letter and trust deposit. Time-sensitive matters can often start the same business day after intake.

A senior attorney handles your matter end to end. We do not pyramid junior associates onto your bill. AI handles the mechanical work; lawyers handle judgment, strategy, and signature. The result is faster turnaround at lower, predictable cost.

AI assists with research, document review, drafting, redlining, and analysis at scale. Every output is reviewed and signed off by a qualified attorney. AI never speaks for the firm. The lawyer remains accountable for the work and the advice.

No. Client data is processed under enterprise terms with no model training, no cross-customer sharing, and no use of inputs to improve third-party models. Privileged content stays inside our environment.

U.S. or E.U. data residency at the client's election. We can document the processing chain and the controls on request, including for clients with their own regulatory or vendor diligence requirements.

Every deliverable is reviewed by a senior attorney before it leaves the firm. Critical work passes through structured checklists, source verification, and partner sign-off. Speed never substitutes for accuracy or judgment.

Strategic counsel, court appearances, regulator-facing communications, and matters with novel legal questions are led directly by attorneys. AI is a leverage tool. It is not a substitute for legal judgment or professional responsibility.
