§ 02 — Orientation
The work we take on is defined.
Business and workplace questions get expensive when they are handled casually. Northline answers them with a structured reading of the facts, a clear read on legal risk, and a scoped recommendation for the next step — no generalities, no theatrics.
Most engagements start with a paid consultation. Defined work follows on a fixed fee or an advisory retainer. Litigation and out-of-scope matters are referred early and clearly.
§ 03 — Main practices
Five fronts, fully covered.
Each category has its own detail page, common matters, and pricing anchor. Cross-links at the foot of every practice map the adjacent work.
Business Law
Structure, ownership, and the documents behind the decisions.
