From a note to a signed engagement.

Write a short note: the contract, the dispute, the question keeping a decision stuck. No intake forms that go nowhere, no discovery-call theater. Talking to the firm does not create an attorney-client relationship — that begins only when an engagement letter is signed — but everything you share is handled with the care owed to a prospective client.

Contacting the firm — through this site, by email, or by beginning intake — does not create an attorney-client relationship. An attorney-client relationship is formed only through a signed engagement agreement.

Paul checks for conflicts, reads what you sent, and tells you whether and how the firm can help — usually within a business day. If the answer is "not us," you'll hear that too, with a pointer where he can give one.

If it's a fit, you receive a short engagement letter defining the scope and the terms — a fixed monthly fee for ongoing outside general counsel, or a written scope and price for a defined project. The relationship begins when it's signed, not before.

Once engaged, the platform goes to work: it researches your company, your counterparties, and the issue, and produces first drafts. Paul reviews everything the system produced, applies judgment, and decides the path. Nothing reaches you — no advice, no draft, no recommendation — without a licensed attorney having reviewed and owned it.

You deal with Paul. Not an associate you've never met, not a rotating team. When a matter needs a specialty the firm doesn't carry, he brings in the right counsel and stays accountable for the whole.

Some clients come for the speed. What they stay for is the accountability: everything is supervised, everything is reviewed, and a licensed attorney owns every output. Confidential handling, a disciplined system, and human judgment at the center — that is the model.
