Services

Fixed fees for specified work

We strive to provide most services on a fixed-fee basis. After scoping the matter, we provide a proposal setting out the work and fee. Larger matters can be scoped separately alongside a retainer.

Monthly retainers

Choose the level of continuing support that fits the business. Every retainer includes senior lawyer time each month, quick legal questions at no extra charge, and a preferred retainer client rate for additional work. The proposal sets out the scope, fees, tax treatment and engagement terms.

A

Outside General Counsel

An outsourced legal function for businesses that want HarbourView operating as part of management, rather than simply reviewing documents on instruction.

$7,800+GST/ month

Up to 15 hours of senior lawyer time per month

  • Unlimited document drafting and advisory work within the included hours.
  • Quick legal questions included: brief calls and emails that need no substantive work do not reduce the monthly allocation.
  • Contract reviews within 3 business days; urgent matters handled the same or next day.
  • Up to 2 check-in calls each month to review ongoing legal priorities.
  • Up to 5 unused hours roll over to the next month, and stay available for as long as the retainer continues.
  • First-month flexibility: if the arrangement is not the right fit after the first month, you can amend or end the retainer without being locked into the remaining minimum term.
  • Preferred retainer client rate for additional work.
