How Support Is Configured
Configured after intake — simple or advanced.
The same structured capacity, assembled to fit your stage, needs, and risk profile — confirmed only after intake, conflict check, and scope review.
Workflow Kits
One or more lifecycle execution modules — browse the kits — all eligible subject to scope review.
Kits + counsel hours
Defined legal work plus ongoing support capacity across the support term.
Example configuration···
2 approved Workflow Kits
+ 9 annual counsel hours
12-month term
Best for
Companies with recurring but defined legal needs, building several parts of their legal infrastructure over a year.
Outside ongoing support
Complex transactions, investor negotiations, securities filings, M&A, and disputes — handled separately.
Advisory conversion
Complex, negotiated, securities-sensitive, dispute, or cross-border matters route to advisory.
What This Is
Structured support — configured, not pre-set.
Flexible legal capacity for companies that need infrastructure over time. It is not unlimited general counsel coverage, and it is not a subscription.
The model
Configured, not pre-set
Support is assembled around your company’s actual needs after intake — counsel hours, approved kits, or both — not selected from public plan tiers.
The limit
Structured, not unlimited
It isn’t unlimited advice, a transaction retainer, or a way to fit complex deals into fixed hours — those route to advisory.
Fee follows the configuration.
Billed on the configuration approved after intake — counsel hours, Workflow Kits, or both. Final fee is confirmed after intake, conflict check, scope review, and engagement letter. HST, filing, and third-party fees are separate unless expressly included.

Eligibility & Scope Boundaries
Who it’s built for — and what sits outside.
Structured support fits recurring, defined needs. Judgment, negotiation, filings, and disputes are handled separately through Advisory & Transactional Work.
Who Ongoing Counsel Support is built for
It works well for:
- ●companies with recurring but defined legal needs;
- ●founders who want an organized legal roadmap after incorporation;
- ●startups preparing for growth, hiring, equity structuring, or financing readiness;
- ●companies that want structured legal capacity without open-ended general counsel coverage;
- ●companies building several parts of their legal infrastructure over a year;
- ●venture platforms or portfolios that need coordinated, recurring legal support.
What sits outside ongoing support
Handled separately through advisory:
- ●complex shareholders agreements and investor negotiations;
- ●securities filings, including Form 45-106F1;
- ●M&A and priced financing rounds;
- ●founder or shareholder disputes and litigation;
- ●cross-border and tax-sensitive structuring;
- ●cap table cleanup and complex governance;
- ●third-party counsel comments and urgent transaction support.

How the Engagement Works
A defined, lawyer-led process from intake to support.
Submitting intake does not create a lawyer-client relationship or guarantee acceptance. The configuration is confirmed only in the engagement letter.
Have questions?
Find answers.
Can I choose only counsel hours?
Yes. Some companies only need defined annual counsel capacity and no Workflow Kits. The appropriate number of hours is confirmed after intake and scope review.
Can I choose Workflow Kits without counsel hours?
Yes. Some companies only need one or more Workflow Kits and do not need annual counsel hours.
Can I choose several Workflow Kits?
Yes, subject to intake, conflict check, scope review, and approval.
Can I combine any number of hours with any number of kits?
Potentially, but the configuration must be approved after intake. Some kits or matters may be excluded, intake-gated, starting-at, or separately scoped.
Can I add more hours later?
Yes, if Fauri Law approves the additional scope and confirms the terms in writing.
Can I add more Workflow Kits later?
Yes, if the additional Workflow Kits fit structured scope and are approved through a scope update or new engagement.
Is this a subscription?
No. Ongoing Counsel Support is a structured support arrangement with defined scope, approved components, a support period, and specific engagement terms. It is not unlimited legal access.
Is this fractional general counsel coverage?
No. It is not fractional GC coverage unless separately scoped. It does not include unlimited availability, urgent response obligations, board-secretary services, transaction management, or general counsel coverage.
Do unused hours roll over?
No. Unused counsel hours do not roll over unless expressly agreed in the engagement letter.
Are complex transactions included in counsel hours?
No. Complex transactions are not included in counsel hours unless expressly scoped. These matters are handled through Advisory & Transactional Work.
Are investor negotiations or third-party counsel comments included?
No. Investor negotiations, investor counsel comments, customer counsel comments, and counterparty markups are handled separately unless expressly included.
Are securities filings included?
No. Securities filings, including Form 45-106F1 filings, are not included unless separately scoped.
Can enterprise or portfolio support be customized?
Yes. Enterprise and portfolio support can be customized after a dedicated strategy session.
When should I book a strategy session instead of submitting intake?
Book a dedicated strategy session if you are a venture fund, accelerator, platform, portfolio manager, scaling company, multi-entity group, or cross-border business seeking a coordinated support model across several companies, matters, or jurisdictions.
Build the right support model around your company’s next stage.
