Details and covered work are agreed after assessing your needs and before the engagement begins.
The concept
Beyond individual requests: a continuous legal framework for your business
The service starts with understanding the company’s activities, decisions, contracts and recurring obligations, then defining an annual scope that helps management refer requests systematically and obtain support connected to the business’s circumstances.
The service does not replace a separate engagement for work outside its scope and does not guarantee a legal or judicial outcome.
A tailored scope
Areas prioritised around your business needs
These are examples of potential work areas. The final scope remains subject to a written agreement.
Contracts and correspondence
Drafting and reviewing contracts, addenda and letters covered by the service before approval or dispatch.
Governance and compliance
Reviewing internal needs, documents and policies relating to governance and compliance according to the business’s activities.
Employment relations
Supporting the business on legal matters relating to employment contracts and policies within the agreed scope.
Legal risk management
Identifying recurring issues and prioritising action before they develop into disputes or unclear obligations.
Preparing for disputes
Reviewing claims, documents and initial options, and identifying whether court representation requires a separate engagement.

Frequently asked questions
What should a company know before starting?
Does an annual service cover all legal work?
No. Covered work and exclusions are set out in a written proposal and agreement after assessing the business’s needs. Certain work, such as representation in a case or a major project, may require a separate scope.
Is there one package suitable for every company?
Needs vary according to activities, transaction volumes, number of contracts and recurring issues. The proposed scope is therefore developed after understanding the business’s circumstances and priorities.
What information is needed for a needs assessment?
A summary of the activities and structure, recurring contract types, expected request volume and key current legal issues is helpful. Do not include highly sensitive information in the initial request.
Does the service include monitoring dates and cases?
Arrangements for following up certain legal matters may be agreed within the scope. Court representation and proceedings remain subject to a clear engagement defining responsibilities and related fees.
