Hours never expire. If your hours run low and you don't refresh, unbilled time reverts to our standard rate of $595/hr. We always give advance notice before that happens.
The AI Advantage: Flat Rate Billing
For simple matters where AI does the heavy lifting and Jesse reviews and approves, we bill a flat 12 minutes of lawyer time. Examples:
- Standard NDA: $105 (5-hr rate) / $95 (10-hr rate) / $80 (20-hr rate)
- Simple vendor agreement: same flat rate
This is what honest AI-powered legal billing looks like.
Every matter is different. We'll always tell you what to expect before we start.
