The first conversation

Before the answer,
understand the brief.

Ask which business-law areas the firm handles and what an initial consultation includes. Fees, conflict checks and the scope of any engagement need confirmation before work begins.

The website enquiry is for general logistics. Do not include confidential deal terms, party names, financial records or documents.

Understand the first conversation

From enquiry to engagement

Clear steps.
Considered expectations.

01

Ask about the process

Start with the practice area and general consultation logistics. Keep confidential details out of the website enquiry.

02

Confirm scope and fees

The actual firm must confirm relevant jurisdiction, availability, consultation format, fees and the process for considering a matter.

03

Understand any engagement

The firm should explain acceptance and scope before representation is confirmed. Ask how requested information should be shared securely.

Practical questions

Before your
first conversation.

Which jurisdictions does the firm cover?

Ask the firm to confirm the jurisdictions its attorneys are licensed to serve and whether it considers your category of matter. Scope and availability need direct confirmation.

Does an enquiry confirm representation?

No representation is confirmed by this enquiry. The actual firm must consider the matter and confirm acceptance and scope separately.

Should I describe the details of my matter?

Keep the first enquiry general. Do not include confidential facts, party names, documents, account information or case identifiers. Ask the real firm how to share requested information.

How should I handle a time-sensitive enquiry?

Do not rely on a general website enquiry to assess a deadline. Confirm an appropriate direct contact route with a qualified attorney.

Your next step

Clarify the process.

Ask about the process. The actual firm must confirm its scope, availability and any engagement separately.
