Fees & Engagement

Clear legal fees, published openly.

Defined corporate legal work carries a published fee. Genuinely variable work is labelled honestly — and every fee is confirmed in writing before engagement.

Where the scope is standard, Fauri Law publishes a fixed fee. Where final scope depends on the company's facts, documents, parties, timing, or complexity, the fee is a starting point, intake-based, or a custom quote — and the page says which. This page is the firm's single reference for fees and how engagement works. It is not a checkout: every matter requires intake, conflict check, scope confirmation, and an engagement letter before any payment or work.

How Fees Work

Four fee models — matched to the work.

Every matter is matched to the fee model that fits its scope, confirmed at intake. We publish a fixed fee wherever the work is standard enough to price with confidence, and label the rest honestly rather than hiding it behind "contact us."

  • Fixed fee

    A firm, published fee for standard scope with defined deliverables, assumptions, and exclusions.

  • Starting at

    A reliable base fee where final scope depends on intake — confirmed at scope review before work begins.

  • Intake-based

    A support model configured around the company after intake, rather than sold as a fixed tier.

  • Custom / hourly

    A bespoke quote or hourly rate for advisory, transaction, negotiation, securities, or dispute work.

Fee Schedule

Every offering, in one place.

Published fees in Canadian dollars. Fixed fees apply to standard scope confirmed at intake; "from" fees are a reliable floor confirmed at scope review. Each row links to that offering's page for what it includes.

Taxes & Disbursements

What the published fee does not include.

Fees are exclusive of taxes and disbursements. HST, government and filing fees, registry fees, platform fees, courier fees, third-party advisor fees, and other disbursements are separate unless expressly included in the engagement letter. The digital minute book renewal after the first year of Launch is also separate.

Scope & Fee Control

What sits inside a fixed fee — and what moves it.

A fixed fee covers a defined, standard scope. When a matter moves beyond it, Fauri Law confirms a revised fee, a starting-at fee, a custom quote, or hourly billing in writing before continuing — so the fee is never a surprise.

Inside the published fee

  • the defined deliverables for the matter's standard scope;
  • the assumptions and exclusions set out in the engagement letter;
  • one round of reasonable revisions, where stated in the engagement letter;
  • implementation guidance and a delivery or review step.

Moves the fee (revised quote or hourly)

  • additional revisions or new instructions beyond the agreed round;
  • negotiations and third-party or investor counsel comments;
  • expanded facts, added parties, or urgent timelines;
  • tax, accounting, valuation, foreign-law, or regulatory advice;
  • securities filings, disputes, and transaction work unless expressly stated;
  • complex matters — handled through Bespoke Advisory & Transactions.
How Engagement Works

From intake to engagement — and only then, payment.

The same lawyer-led sequence applies to every fee model. No payment is taken before scope and fee are confirmed in writing.

01

Start Your Matter

Begin a matter or book a consultation through intake.

02

Complete Intake

Share your company, legal need, documents, parties, and timing.

03

Conflict & Scope

Fauri Law confirms fit and the right fee model.

04

Engagement Letter

Scope, fee, assumptions, exclusions, and terms are confirmed in writing.

05

Payment or Retainer

Handled only after the engagement letter is accepted.

06

Work Begins

Work starts once terms are accepted and payment or retainer is in place.

Submitting intake does not create a lawyer-client relationship; none is formed until Fauri Law confirms the engagement in writing. For the firm-wide delivery model, see How We Deliver.

Frequently Asked

Fees — common questions.

What does "fixed fee" mean here?

A firm, published fee that applies where the matter fits a standard scope with defined deliverables, assumptions, and exclusions, confirmed at intake. If the matter fits, the fee shown is the fee you pay (plus taxes and disbursements).

What does "from" or "starting at" mean?

The figure is a reliable floor for a standard starting scope. Final fee is confirmed at scope review, because the work can vary with tax, valuation, securities, cap-table, investor, cross-border, negotiation, or timing factors. It is a starting point, not a ceiling.

Are HST and government fees included?

No, unless expressly stated. HST, government and filing fees, registry fees, platform fees, courier fees, and third-party costs are separate from the legal fee.

What is included in "one round of reasonable revisions"?

Where stated in the engagement letter, a fixed-fee matter includes one consolidated round of reasonable revisions to the delivered documents within the matter's scope. The engagement letter sets out what counts as a round and the window for requesting it; further revisions or new instructions are scoped separately.

Can I pay online immediately?

No. This is not a checkout. Payment or retainer is addressed only after intake, conflict check, scope confirmation, and a signed engagement letter.

Are negotiations or third-party counsel comments included?

No. Negotiations, investor or counterparty counsel comments, and third-party markups are separate unless expressly scoped — they move a matter beyond standard fixed-fee scope, typically into Bespoke Advisory & Transactions.

What if my matter is more complex than standard scope?

Fauri Law confirms an add-on, a revised scope, a starting-at fee, a custom quote, or hourly advisory billing in writing before continuing. Complex matters are handled through Bespoke Advisory & Transactions — you are never quietly charged a fixed fee for work that has outgrown it.
