“This could be the frontier of professional advisory: proactive, fully integrated with your data & context, and in your channels.”

(Mattias Ljungman, Founder & Managing Partner, Moonfire)

How we work

  1. Start here.

    A 30-minute intake call to start building your legal foundation.

    Book a call
  2. We plug in.

    We join your Slack or WhatsApp, get access to the documents that matter, and learn your business.

  3. We take it from there.

    Senior judgment on whatever comes up, however broad or complex: what we don't do ourselves, we manage for you.

Your context lives in a system, not in one person's head.

Nothing gets lost between conversations, and nothing depends on who's on holiday.

Pricing

Committed capacity. Predictable pricing.

You retain a fixed amount of our time each month at a flat monthly fee.

  • Core

    £3,500 a month + VAT

    Half a day a week (4 hours)

  • Growth

    £6,000 a month + VAT

    A full day a week (8 hours)

  • Expansion

    £8,500 a month + VAT

    Six full days a month

  • Time is tracked and shown to you as a running balance.
  • Unused time rolls forward for up to two months, so a quiet month doesn't cost you.
  • No onboarding fee. Getting to know your business happens inside your retainer from day one.
  • A big one-off project can have a fixed fee instead. Scoped and agreed upfront; never open-ended.

Point of view

Automation is not the goal.

What AI changes about legal advice, and what it doesn't: judgment, context, and the relationship.
