Fixed fee, quoted after a scoping call
We confirm the scope on a short call, then quote a fixed fee in writing before work starts. The fee is quoted after we look at the agreement.
Timing
Depends on the agreement and your deadline. Tell us the deadline when you first reach out so the scope and timing of the review can be agreed around it.
