Clients benefit from Field Law's framework of a client service culture and dedication to successfully running the firm as a competitive, continuously improving business while pursuing legal excellence and serving our communities.

Our regional size, structure and deep roots allow us to provide added value services. We are a large enough regional presence to be able to closely monitor regional issues and challenges affecting our clients and still entrepreneurial and nimble enough to be able to effect change quickly and cost effectively. 

Field Law's leadership follows client, general counsel and legal industry research and aligns the firm's strategy to remain a competitive and attractive choice for clients, lawyers and staff. We are committed to client-focused, mutually rewarding investments in initiatives that demonstrate our commitment to client service and professional excellence. Some examples are as follows:

Providing Value for Your Dollars:

Alternative Fee Arrangements: Field Law has experience with a broad range of alternative fee arrangements (AFAs), including providing legal services on a fixed fee basis for project work, fixed fees for larger portfolios of work, contingency fee arrangements, blended hourly rate and contingency fee arrangements, and blended hourly rate and performance based holdbacks. We have identified the need to be proactive in providing alternatives to the hourly rate billing model. We are flexible in structuring our billing arrangements and are aware that in many cases clients want more budget certainty than the hourly billing model provides. 

For business law clients, Field Law offers a variety of services at a fixed price. These services include incorporation and an extensive range of corporate administrative actions. For commercial house builders, we offer conveyance services at a fixed price. A variety of transactional services are offered at special or blended rates. 

Client Learning: As a client, you have access to exclusive opportunities to learn such as seminars, in-house presentations, webinars, industry-specific roundtable sessions, Lunch and Learn sessions, e-bulletins, newsletters and articles. Many of our lawyers have written authoritative textbooks in particular areas of law and/or have annotated other publications that we also share with you. You can find our publications and events at this link: News + Views + Events and you can subscribe to our communications using this link: Subscribe.

Leveraged Resourcing: Paralegals, librarians and assistants are part of the Field Law team who provide technical proficiency and support to your business and ensure that the right work is being done by the right person. 

Professional Development/Training: Our commitment to education and training is such a high priority that we created the position of Director of Professional Recruitment and Development. Responsible for coordinating the delivery of our various continuing legal education and professional initiatives, our Director is constantly looking for ways to build upon and expand our existing programs. Our goal is to ensure that all of our lawyers can access the resources they need in order to become outstanding legal advisors to our clients. Additionally a large number of our lawyers engage in law school teaching which allows us to give back to our legal academic communities and keeps us on the cutting edge of developments in various areas. 

Global Network: Field Law is a member of SCG Legal, allowing you access, (through us) to legal representation around the world.

Understanding Your Business:

Understanding your business is our business. We know that providing efficient and effective service means being actively involved in and knowledgeable of your industry, business, vision and objectives.

Field Law encourages its lawyers to become familiar with your business through visits to your workplaces, subscription to industry publications and attendance at and participation in events relevant to your business. Our advice and services benefit from this in-depth understanding and knowledge and you benefit from more informed advice that creates better relationships and delivers more value.
