At Lexxon, our solicitors go further in putting our clients´ interests first. For example:
Solicitors are sometimes accused of “over-servicing”. The inference is that this is done intentionally by solicitors to earn more fees. Although we cannot deny that some solicitors may do this, we genuinely believe that over-servicing mostly comes about inadvertently because of lack of experience, or because solicitors don’t recognise a practical or commercial way to deal with a problem, or agreement.
Many law firms get junior solicitors to do a lot of the work, which may seem reasonable because their hourly rate is lower than senior solicitors. But it invariably takes less experienced solicitors longer to do the job and they rarely have the experience to recognise practical or commercial solutions. Clients then end up paying for the time solicitors spend learning on the job.
Not everyone drives a Mercedes, and not all clients need a Mercedes-quality agreement. So why are so many business agreements “over-engineered”, especially when less expensive agreements will often do the job? As a simple example, what is the point in having a state-of-the-art agreement that will stand up in court (and costs a lot of money) in circumstances where no-one is going to take it to court if it is breached?
