Working With Us
-
We keep things human, honest, and practical. You’ll never get lost in legal jargon or scare tactics here. We speak plainly, don’t overcomplicate things, and give clear advice you can use. Fixed fees mean you’ll always know what to expect.
-
Think of it like chatting with a friend who happens to know the legal ropes. Start by booking a call. Tell us what’s on your mind. If we’re a fit, we’ll send a fixed-fee quote so there are no surprises. Once you’re happy, we get to work and keep you updated along the way.
-
We know your time is precious, so we respond to most emails and calls the same day or within 24 hours. If we’re out paddle boarding, you’ll still hear back quickly.
-
Yes, you’ll work directly with Calina, the founder and principal lawyer. Nothing gets lost in translation. As we grow, we’ll keep this “one-to-one” approach central to how we work.
-
Absolutely. We believe the best outcomes come from everyone working together. Collaboration is encouraged.
Services
-
We work with service agreements, cloud based agreements, client contracts, partner agreements, reseller agreements, intellectual property and licensing deals, SaaS and tech agreements, NDAs, employment, contractor and freelance agreements, and more. If it shapes your business, we’re here for it.
-
Yes, we can help you understand ownership, register trademarks, and create agreements that protect your ideas and brand.
-
We do. Whether you need a privacy policy, a cookie notice, or guidance on Australia’s privacy laws and global trends, we’ll help you stay compliant and protect your customers’ trust.
-
Our focus is on keeping you out of court by preventing problems before they start. We help with prevention, risk management, and strong agreements. If you ever need a lawyer for litigation, we’ll recommend someone trustworthy.
-
We go beyond legal advice with strategic consulting, process improvements, templates, training, risk management, and negotiation support. Consultancy services are separate from legal services due to regulations, and we’re happy to explain the details if you have questions.
Pricing & Payment
-
We mainly work on fixed-fee or clearly scoped packages so you know the cost upfront. Pricing depends on what you need, but we’ll walk you through your options with no pressure.
-
It’s rare. Most work is packaged up front, but if hourly billing ever comes into play, you’ll know how it works before we begin.
-
We send an invoice with payment details. Direct transfer is the standard, but if you need something different, just ask.
-
We want legal help to be accessible, so if a payment plan helps, we’re happy to make it work.
The Experience
-
That’s more than okay, it’s honestly our favourite kind of client. There are no silly questions here. Our job is to make things less intimidating, not more.
-
You’re not alone. Many people start out thinking, “I know I need help, but I’m not sure where to begin.” That’s exactly what our discovery calls are for.
-
Absolutely. We’ll review what you’ve got, explain the risks, and suggest your next steps - with zero judgment.
-
You can reach out by email, phone, or the video call platform you prefer. We’ll adapt to what works best for you.
