Law firm consultant services

I can help expand your firm’s offering by joining your team as a specialist construction, tech integration and renewables consultant lawyer.

I also accept secondments where your client needs a resource but you can’t spare your own lawyers, or I can join a project team or SPV to help navigate the project through a contentious period or dispute.

When I join your team

  • You set the charge out rate at which you bill your client for my time and I charge your firm at the rate below. Firms I consult to bill me out at the level of Special Counsel
  • ​​You only pay me for client-billable work actually performed. I am not an employee, and when you say to stop work, you incur no further cost
  • I can use my own equipment or you provide a laptop and IT onboarding. Then you just send me your instructions and I will perform the work for you
  • Renew Legal Pty Ltd is an incorporated legal practice, so I am just like any other contractor or supplier of goods or services to your firm
  • I perform all my work to the standard expected of a senior fee earner at a top tier firm
  • I have extensive experience working in firms and in-house on construction and renewables matters in Australia, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Mozambique, New Zealand, Philippines, and Vietnam

Time recording

I use your time recording software and follow your processes:

  • the firm provides me with a user profile in the time recording software
  • the partner sends me their instructions and timeframe for completion
  • I complete the work and record my time for doing so directly into the firm’s time recording software
  • the firm bills the client for my time at its rate
  • at the end of each month, or when the work is complete (as appropriate), I invoice the firm for my time
