OUR UNIQUE FEE MODEL
We offer our clients a retainer fee relationship. This has the benefit of receiving preferential treatment and real-time support while qualifying for discounted professional fees.
What is a retainer fee?
A retainer fee is a fixed payment on a monthly basis that ensures you are able to budget for a bouquet of services at a fixed fee.
Retainer fees are capped at a fee that is agreed to, based on your requirements. You only pay for additional services and clients do not receive invoices for petty charges like phone calls, faxes and so on.
The retainer fee is based on:
The needs of the client
The number of employees
The industry / sector that the client operates in
The number of visits to the client per month
This fee model involves regular payments of a set fee to cover all work done in the period concerned. Retainer fees are payable in advance. This advance payment is the primary rationale for the discount we apply to our retainer fees. The retainer fee is based on a discount on equivalent hourly rate-based fees.

A free legal compliance review
Reviewing, updating or drafting of policies
