Value Beyond Legal Advice

Alternative Fee Arrangements

We understand that managing legal costs requires predictability, transparency and flexibility. Field Law has experience with a broad range of alternative fee arrangements (AFAs), including fixed fees for individual projects and larger portfolios of work, contingency fee arrangements, blended hourly rates and performance-based arrangements.

We work with clients to develop billing structures appropriate to the nature and scope of their legal needs. For business law clients, we offer a variety of services at fixed prices, including incorporation and corporate administrative services. Fixed-fee and alternative pricing options are also available for certain real estate and transactional matters.

Client Learning + Legal Resources

Our clients have access to learning opportunities and legal resources designed to help them stay informed about developments affecting their organizations, industries and communities.

These include seminars, webinars, in-house presentations, industry-specific roundtables, Lunch and Learn sessions, e-bulletins, newsletters and legal insights. Field Law lawyers also contribute to textbooks, legal publications and professional education, sharing their knowledge both with our clients and the broader legal community.

Efficient Legal Resourcing

Effective legal service means matching each matter and task with the right skills and resources. Our lawyers work alongside paralegals, legal assistants, research professionals and other members of the Field Law team to provide efficient and coordinated support.

This approach allows work to be allocated appropriately while maintaining the quality, responsiveness and continuity our clients expect.

Professional Development + Legal Training

Continuous learning is central to how Field Law develops its lawyers and delivers high-quality legal advice. We invest in continuing legal education, professional development and training so our lawyers have access to the knowledge and resources they need throughout their careers.

Many of our lawyers also teach at law schools, contribute to professional education programs, write and contribute to legal publications, and participate in the broader legal community. This allows us to contribute to the profession while remaining closely connected to developments in law and legal practice.

Global Legal Network

As a member of SCG Legal, Field Law connects clients with a global network of independent law firms when their legal needs extend beyond our jurisdictions.

The network provides access to thousands of lawyers across the United States and major international commercial centres. Through these relationships, we can help clients identify trusted local legal support and coordinate matters across multiple jurisdictions.

Understanding Your Business

Understanding our clients is fundamental to providing effective legal advice. We take the time to learn about your business, industry, operations, objectives and the environment in which you work.

Our lawyers develop that understanding through ongoing client relationships, workplace visits, industry involvement, professional organizations, industry publications and participation in relevant events.

This knowledge helps us provide advice that considers not only the immediate legal issue, but also the broader business context, priorities and objectives behind it. The result is more informed advice, stronger working relationships and legal solutions grounded in what matters to our clients.
