Frequent questions
Questions, answered.
- Why is commercial work typically charged hourly?
- Because every matter is genuinely different, a two-week sponsor licence doesn't look like a four-month corporate restructure. Hourly billing keeps the fee proportionate to the work done, with full transparency on what time was spent where. For defined pieces of work, I'm happy to agree a fixed fee up front.
- Can you help with sponsor licence applications?
- Yes. I handle the full sponsor licence process from eligibility assessment to Home Office compliance and ongoing management, typically on a fixed fee from £2,000 + VAT.
- Do you act for start-ups?
- Yes. I regularly advise founders on company formation, shareholder agreements, IP assignment and early-stage investment documentation.
