About Us

What we do

We understand that resolving legal matters can be expensive. We designed bespoke legal service packages to fit all budgets and levels of need. By unbundling legal services, we provide you with the specific services you need.

What will it cost?

We only perform the services you request. Clients often ask, “What will it cost me?” This is a difficult question to answer until we meet and discuss your matter. At the first meeting, we will discuss your needs and your budget.

Family Law

Families going through separation are often very stressed, both emotionally and financially. In most cases, there are better options than the traditional court process. Currently, a five-day trial is estimated to cost each party in excess of $60,000 and take years to come to a resolution. Negotiation, Mediation, Collaborative Law, and Arbitration are effective family law options that can reduce the cost, conflict, and chaos of a traditional divorce., Mediation, Collaborative Law, and Arbitration are effective family law options that can reduce the cost, conflict, and chaos of a traditional divorce.

Real Estate & Renovation Disputes

For most people, their only interaction with the legal system is when they own property. Real estate is often a person’s largest investment. We understand how difficult these disputes can be, especially when it is not just about money, but about your home.

We have almost 20 years of real estate experience and have assisted many homeowners, realtors, and contractors avoid court and reach agreements. Our focus is de-escalation and resolution.

Most of the time, we only become involved when the dispute has occurred. However, we strongly recommend clients obtain legal advice before they sign any contract. Realtors do a good job when it comes to purchase and sales agreements, but when it comes to contractors, leases, and tenancy issues, seeing a lawyer before you sign can save you time and money.

Contract Disputes

With over 30 years of business experience, we provide a wealth of experience resolving contract disputes. Regardless of where you are in the process, we can provide specialized legal advice and resolution strategies for you.  We can manage your entire business issue or provide you with bespoke unbundled legal support.

Our Approach

We use a value-based billing approach. With most files, this is often accomplished by flat fee or subscription services. Below are some sample flat fee services. A subscription is often used when individuals need ongoing support and want to be able to get help a number of times spread out over several months.

Service Agreements and Technology

We ensure our clients fully understand the services that we will provide and the cost for those services. This is outlined in the Service Agreement. If a fee is not in the agreement, you will not be charged for that service unless you agree in advance and in writing. In a value-based approach, there should be no surprises.

We can provide affordable services by utilizing technology. We use advanced industry programs to minimize costs and improve service. We send invoices and correspondence by email. You can pay your bill online with our LawPay platform. Our goal is great service.

Representation

We want you to be in control. Therefore, we do not act as your legal representative unless you specifically authorize us to do so. We will not negotiate on your behalf, bind you to any agreements, sign documents, or communicate with the court, other lawyers, or any other party unless you tell us to.  This keeps you in control and avoids run away costs.

If you authorize us to act on your behalf when dealing with the court, lawyers, or other third parties, we will be clear that our involvement is limited and that you still represent yourself.
