Lexovanta focuses exclusively on business law. We advise companies, partnerships, and organizations rather than individuals on personal legal matters.
Billing depends on the matter. Some engagements are billed hourly, others on a fixed-fee basis for well-defined scopes like a contract review or incorporation. We discuss and agree on the billing structure before any work begins.
