A relationship built with care.

Conflict and suitability checks are completed. Your scope, fees, payment arrangements and service terms are confirmed in the Client Care Agreement.

Share documents and questions through Clio for Clients and schedule your consultations.

04 / Continuing oversight

Work to an agreed monthly priorities plan, with consultation follow-up and a concise progress summary within your allowance.

Before we begin

Can my membership cover more than one matter?

Yes, subject to agreed scope, suitability and conflict checks. All matters share your membership’s monthly time allowance.

How does private portal access work?

Send questions and documents as matters arise. Professional time spent reviewing and responding counts towards your allowance. The portal is not continuously monitored or an emergency service; response arrangements are agreed at onboarding.

What if I need more time or a substantial project?

Additional work is scoped and priced with you before it begins. Major projects and specialist third-party advice may require separate engagements.

Does Legacy include a Zoom every week?

Legacy includes four one-hour Zooms per monthly service period, normally scheduled weekly. A fifth session is separately agreed where required.

How are payments and cancellation arranged?

Fees are payable monthly in advance. Renewal arrangements, cancellation rights and unused time are confirmed in your Client Care Agreement before you commit. Recurring payments require your express authorisation.

Begin with a private conversation.

Tell us what matters to you, and we will consider the right level of support.
