About

The opposite of a law firm that ignores you

Two things clients complain about everywhere else: not knowing what it will cost, and never hearing back. So we quote fixed fees wherever the work allows, and every client gets a named contact who replies within one business day. If we are not the right firm for your matter we will say so in the free consultation and point you somewhere better.

“They quoted $1,200 for the house closing and that is exactly what I paid. My last lawyer added six hundred dollars of things I never agreed to.”

Gail P. · London

“Reviewed my severance for free, told me the offer was low, and got it raised by eleven thousand. I never once had to chase them for an update.”

Ravi S. · St. Thomas

“In the free consultation they told me my matter did not need a lawyer at all and explained how to handle it myself. That is why I came back a year later with something bigger.”

FAQ

Common questions

What does the first meeting cost?

Nothing. The first thirty minutes are free, and you leave it knowing roughly what your matter involves and what it will cost — even if you decide not to hire us.

Do you charge by the hour?

Only where the work genuinely cannot be scoped in advance, like contested family matters. Wills, real estate and business work are fixed fees. Hourly work gets a written estimate before we start.

How quickly will someone get back to me?

Within one business day, from a named contact — not a general inbox. If your matter is time-sensitive tell the assistant and it will flag it.

Can you take my case?

We will tell you honestly in the free consultation. If your matter is outside what we do well, we will say so and point you to someone who does it better.
