How we do business
Why work with us?
We have worked at the federal, state, and local levels on a range of issues from nonprofit and small business law, to housing and real estate, to contracts and trusts and estates, and beyond.
As a boutique firm we build lasting relationships with our clients. We are dedicated to more fully understanding your unique context and needs, with time and attention to help resolve your issues.
Uniquely, we also offer non-legal services though Cedar Insights for what matters most to you.
Who will I work with?
We each bring unique skills and perspectives to our work, so one of us may focus more time with you based on your specific case and circumstances. The advantage of our partnership is that we are both here to support you, and we collaborate together to meet your needs.
How much does it cost?
We offer competitive rates so that we can be dedicated and available for you. Depending on the issue and your needs, we can work with different pricing models to help ensure you can afford the services you require. Possible billing arrangements include:
A standing retainer agreement, offering up to a certain number of hours of on-demand consultation and priority legal assistance when you need it the most, including consulting and contracting services from our associated entities, such as Cedar Insights.
A fixed-fee service for more routine issues, including time to better understand your goals and concerns, meeting regularly throughout to ensure that you understand the legal considerations involved in your issue and are comfortable with the solution.
An hourly rate that allows for pay-as-you-need-it consultation, research, advice, and legal documentation. This can be a great solution for managing urgent and unpredictable issues whenever they come up.
What about my non-legal needs?
Cedar Insights is equipped to provide with a variety of services including:
Strategic planning and communications
Program design and service delivery
Training and technical assistance
Grant applications and management and writing
If there’s something beyond what we do, we can introduce you to trusted entities and bring them in to assist with your project. Let us know what you need, and odds are we have a solution for you.
