Client Consultation
At Gavel Legal, we aim to make legal support accessible and effective by offering multiple engagement models tailored to your needs. Whether you’re an individual, startup, or small-to-medium enterprise, we structure our consultations to offer clear value, predictable cost, and the legal assurance you need to operate with confidence.
Fixed Fee Arrangements
Our fixed-fee services are ideal for clients who want clarity on cost and scope from the outset. Instead of hourly billing, we offer transparent packages for specific tasks or document types, ensuring no surprises in your legal spend.
Fixed-fee packages include:
- Contract drafting (e.g., employment, service, consultancy): from £100
- Visa application or review support: from £100
- Letters before action: from £125
- Business formation documentation: from £300
- BSB or SRA exemption advisory package: from £200
Each fixed-fee service includes a detailed consultation, document preparation, and one round of revisions. This approach ensures clients have budget certainty while still receiving personalized legal support.
The above competitive pricing reflects our determination towards time and cost effective legal services specially designed for your needs. For any pricing related to any specific legal assignment, please leave us a query.
Project-Based Support
For one-off legal matters or time-sensitive projects, Gavel Legal offers bespoke project-based services. These are ideal for businesses or individuals with specific legal needs that fall outside retainer or general advisory models.
Examples of project-based engagements include:
- Drafting and reviewing multiple interrelated agreements for a new product launch
- Advising on and preparing documentation for shareholder restructuring
- Supporting B2B negotiations involving contract vetting and strategy
- Assisting in mediation preparation, position papers, and settlement documentation
We begin each project with a scope-setting session to assess the legal goals, timelines, and volume of work. A project lead is assigned to coordinate deliverables and communication, ensuring seamless execution.
Flexible In-House Style Support
Inspired by the outsourced in-house legal services model, we also offer legal integration support for businesses needing continuity without the commitment of permanent staff. This is especially useful for:
- Sole legal counsels needing support during high-volume periods
- Businesses with no in-house legal function requiring intermittent assistance
- Firms needing coverage during leave of absence or holidays
Our consultants can work as an extension of your team and help you drafting, vetting or reviewing documents such as NDAs, supply agreements, reviewing terms and conditions, or advising on internal compliance and governance matters. Engagement can be structured as:
- Ad hoc assignments (e.g., urgent review within 48 hours)
- Short-term support (e.g., 2-4 weeks of document review)
- Rolling engagements (e.g., 8–10 hours/month ongoing support)
This flexible model allows you to manage legal risk and maintain workflow without hiring temporary staff or committing to long-term contracts.
Gavel Legal’s consultation approach is rooted in practicality and accessibility. Whether you need one document or strategic support for a full project, our engagement models are designed to be clear, cost-effective, and fit for purpose.
What our clients say…
