What this audits

  • Engagement letter templates against the firm's stated fee schedule
  • Conflict-of-interest review process across intake and matter-opening procedures
  • Confidentiality and privilege language across client-facing docs
  • Risk exposure when associates quote the wrong rate or window

When to use this

You run a law firm or in-house legal team. Engagement letters, fee schedules, and conflict-check procedures must agree. A new associate quoting the wrong rate is a write-off; a missed conflict is a Bar complaint.

Industries this fits

  • Law firms
  • In-house legal
  • Compliance consultancies
