Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a billing review engagement take?

A single invoice audit typically takes two to five business days depending on invoice complexity. Monthly retainer engagements operate on an agreed schedule. Portfolio audits are scoped individually based on invoice count and complexity.

What do I need to provide to get started?

Your outside counsel billing guidelines, the invoices you want reviewed, and a signed engagement agreement. We handle everything from there.

Do you offer white-labeled reporting?

Yes. Reports can be delivered under your branding for insurers and TPAs who manage outside counsel on behalf of policyholders.

How is this different from what our outside counsel does internally?

Independence is the key difference. When outside counsel reviews its own billing, the objectivity is limited by the relationship. Our review is independent, attorney-performed, and defensible.

How is pricing structured?

Engagements are available per-invoice, monthly retainer, or as a one-time portfolio audit. Pricing is confirmed in the written engagement agreement before work begins. Contact us to discuss the right structure for your situation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are consultancy services the same as legal advice?

Consultancy services are strategic and documentation support in nature and do not constitute legal advice unless delivered pursuant to a written legal engagement agreement. We will always clarify the nature of the engagement before work begins.

Do you serve clients outside the United States?

Yes. Our consultancy services are available to businesses and individuals operating across U.S. and Caribbean jurisdictions. Scrutineer services are available worldwide.

What is a scrutineer and when would I need one?

A scrutineer is an independent third party who oversees high-stakes processes, including elections, board decisions, competitions, and corporate governance matters, to ensure fairness, transparency, and integrity. RM Global Law Firm has direct international scrutineer experience, having overseen the IBSA General Assembly in Portugal, an international Paralympic-affiliated board election. You would engage a scrutineer when the credibility of an outcome needs to be independently verified by a neutral, qualified third party.

Yes. We provide trademark application preparation and USPTO filing coordination. Contact us to discuss your trademark matter.

What types of funding readiness support do you offer?

We assist with documentation preparation and organization for businesses pursuing grants, loans, and startup capital. This includes supporting documentation review and funding application support. This is consultancy support, not legal advice, unless delivered under a written legal engagement agreement.

How do I get started with a consultancy engagement?
