Buy a single service as a fixed-bid engagement, or retain us monthly for ongoing access to discovery, motion drafting, deposition support, trial prep, and joint appendix work.
These are the engagement types we run most often. Real numbers depend on volume, deadline, and matter complexity — we'll quote on the scoping call.
Document review, production, privilege log for a single discovery cycle.
Appellate record compilation, court-formatted, indexed and file-ready.
Rule 1006 exhibits, fact validation, trial prep, or a combined package.
For firms that need Legal1Up as a bench — not a one-off vendor. A monthly retainer gives you access to discovery, motion drafting, deposition support, trial prep, and joint appendix work without re-scoping every matter from zero.
Retainer size depends on expected volume and which services you use most. We quote after a short scoping conversation — no surprise hourly burn.

Hourly billing punishes efficiency — the faster we work, the less you pay us, which creates a bad incentive. Project pricing aligns us: we quote a number, you know your exposure, we own the outcome. If something changes mid-engagement we re-scope before doing the work, not after.
You describe the matter and what you need. We ask about volume, deadline, and the deliverable format. By the end of the call you have a fixed-bid quote and a delivery date. If the scope is straightforward we send the quote on the call; complex matters get a quote within 24 hours.
You can buy a single engagement with no retainer and no minimum monthly spend. If you want ongoing access across discovery, motion drafting, depositions, trial prep, and joint appendices, we also offer a monthly retainer — scoped to the volume you expect.
The AI lets us hit volume targets that would be cost-prohibitive at hourly rates — that's why our Rule 1006 work is competitive. The human review happens regardless of volume because that's where the legal judgment lives. You're paying for the human time, the AI is what makes that human time productive.
Standard delivery is 3–5 business days. Rush (24–48 hour) is available for an additional 30–50% depending on the matter. We don't accept rush requests we can't meet — we'd rather decline than miss your deadline.
Every engagement starts with a conflict check against our active matters. We sign your NDA or work under ours — whichever you prefer. All work happens in encrypted environments, and we don't use client work to train external models.
Scope call ends with a number, a delivery date, and a single point of contact — or a clear "we're not your shop" with no follow-up.
