How a legal subscription works

With Flex Business Lawyer, you subscribe once, clear a conflict check, sign an engagement agreement, and then send your legal questions and projects to your attorney whenever they come up. Up to 5 attorney hours a month are included for $1,997.

Getting started, step by step

Submit the intake form

Share your company name, its owners, your state, a short description of what you need, and any people or companies on the other side of your matters. Leave out confidential details for now.

We run a conflict check

Before we can represent you, we confirm that we don't represent anyone whose interests conflict with yours. That's why we ask about owners and adverse parties.

Review and sign your engagement agreement

Once conflicts clear, we send your engagement agreement and billing details through a secure link. Your representation begins when the agreement is signed.

Kickoff call

We learn how your business works: your customers, team, key contracts, and anything legal that's already on your plate.

Send requests anytime

Email your attorney when a contract lands, a hiring question comes up, or a dispute starts brewing. Your monthly hours cover the work.

What you can send us

If it’s a legal question about your business, it’s in scope. Here’s what subscribers use their hours on most.

Contract review and drafting

Customer and vendor agreements, NDAs, leases, SaaS terms and partnership agreements.

Employment questions

Offer letters, contractor classification, handbooks, policies and separations.

Governance and ownership

Operating agreements, shareholder questions, buy-sell terms and entity maintenance.

Trademarks and IP

Clearance searches, trademark filings, IP assignments and licensing.

Disputes and collections

Demand letters, responses to threats, early strategy and settlement terms.

Transactions

Buying or selling a business, investments, financings and new ventures.

How hours are handled

  • Up to 5 hours a month.Your subscription covers up to 5 attorney hours each billing month. Unused hours don't roll over.
  • We ask before going over.If routine work would take you past 5 hours in a month, we check with you first. Approved additional time is $550 an hour.
  • Estimates for larger matters.Litigation, acquisitions, financings and similar matters get a time estimate upfront, along with how the work will be billed.
  • One point of contact.Chris Clark coordinates your legal work the way a general counsel would. When a matter needs a lawyer licensed in another jurisdiction, he brings in licensed co-counsel, and that time counts toward your monthly hours.

What a subscription isn't

A subscription isn’t a retainer you prepay and watch drain. It isn’t a hotline staffed by whoever is free. And it isn’t a promise that every matter fits in 5 hours. It’s a working relationship with a business lawyer, priced by the month, with clear rules for what happens when a matter gets bigger.

Questions about the process

How long does the conflict check take?

It depends on the matter and the parties involved. We'll let you know if we need more information, and we send your engagement agreement once conflicts clear.

Can I send documents with my intake form?

Please don't send confidential information or documents until your engagement agreement is signed. A short summary of what you need is enough to start.

Who will I work with?

Chris Clark leads client work and coordinates your matters. If a matter requires a lawyer licensed in a particular state or court, we bring in licensed co-counsel.

What if I'm not sure the subscription is right for my business?

Book a consultation and we'll talk through what you need and whether a subscription fits.

Ready when you are

Start with the intake form. We'll take it from there.

Please don’t include confidential details in the form. Submitting it doesn’t create an attorney-client relationship.
