Our difference

Any employment lawyer can tell you about the law.  Our difference is that we enjoy working closely with our clients, getting to know them and their business.  We are well known for our pragmatic and straight forward approach.  That means we provide solutions that are tailored to your needs, timely and actually work in the real world.

In appropriate cases we work collaboratively with other experts, advisors and coaches, which means you get the full benefit of our experience and networks.

We can offer a variety of options for pricing and billing to best suit your needs.  These include work on retainer, fixed or capped fees, and the traditional hourly rate model.  Whichever option works best for you, we provide certainty to allow you to plan ahead.
