We understand that clients are looking for certainty on fees and value for money solutions from their lawyers. We also understand that clients buy resolutions and effective outcomes (not hours of time). We therefore offer fixed prices where your Project Scope and Timescales are clear, for any Employment Law or Business Law project.
Here are some examples:

Fixed price for a new employment contract for an office based Manager (not Director)

Scope
We will:

1. Ask you for your instructions,
2. Prepare the first draft employment contract for you, and
3. When you have reviewed it produce the final draft including your comments.

Timescales: up to 1 week depending upon your other commitments to give you time to review the drafts

Price: Fixed fee £950 plus VAT 

Fixed price for new employment contracts for the whole workforce (excluding Directors)

Scope
This project is more complex and needs more thought, planning and time and discussions with you, typically requiring three drafts.

Timescales: up to 2 weeks depending upon your other commitments to give you time to review the drafts

Price: from £1,250 – £1,750 plus VAT

Fixed price for new Shareholders Agreement

Scope
If your company has one class of ordinary shares and there is no need to change the Articles of Association then a straightforward Shareholders Agreement may be suitable in simple to read legal English.

We will:

1. Ask you for your instructions,
2. Prepare the first draft Shareholders Agreement for you explaining:

1.  What happens if one shareholder wants to leave and sell his or her shares
2.  How those shares are valued and paid for
3.  What happens on an Exit (eg sale of the company) and
4.  That shareholders will not compete with the business and approach clients while they own shares and for an agreed period after they sell their shares

   When you have reviewed it produce the final draft including your comments.

   Timescales: upto 2 weeks depending upon your other commitments to give you time to review the drafts

Price: £1,750 – £2,500 plus VAT
