1 ### Scope the work A short call to settle what you need, a contract drafted, a counterparty's draft reviewed, an HR audit, a governance setup, then a plan and a fee before any work begins. 2 ### Draft or review A GTC attorney drafts the agreement to your deal or redlines the one in front of you, tuned to the law where you operate, not a swapped-name template. 3 ### Negotiate & finalise We support the negotiation, turn the agreed revisions, and deliver the final executed documents to your portal, stored against your matter. How pricing works ## Flat where we can, quoted to scope. A standard NDA is a flat fee, shown up front. Contract drafting and review, employment work, HR audits, governance, equity plans, and legal audits are quoted per matter after a short call, so the fee fits the scope. You approve the fee in writing before any work begins. One-off work ### Per matter, quoted up front A flat fee for an NDA; a scoped quote for drafting, review, employment, HR, governance, and audits. Confirmed before work starts. Ongoing counsel ### GTC Advantage retainer Need an attorney on call for contracts and questions? [GTC Advantage](/gtc-advantage) is a fixed monthly retainer for ongoing outside counsel. Why GTC ## One commercial team for the paperwork that runs the business. ### Drafted by attorneys, not a form Every contract and policy is drafted or reviewed by a commercial attorney to your deal and your jurisdiction. The part a template or an AI generator leaves generic and brittle. ### Tuned to where you operate Governing law, employment covenants, and HR policies are drafted to the law where the deal lands and your people work. US, India, EU, or UK, with local counsel coordinated where it matters. ### Risk flagged before you sign We tell you which clauses work against you and which terms to push back on, so you decide the commercial trade-offs with the risks in front of you. ### One team across your paperwork Contracts, employment, governance, and equity handled through a single point of contact, and an ongoing GTC Advantage retainer when you need counsel regularly. Your Customer Success Team ## A dedicated team that owns your matter from start to finish. Every GTC client gets a dedicated Account Manager and a Senior Account Manager who learn your business and stay with you from first email to final filing. They are named people who pick up the phone and already know your matter, so every step moves forward without delay. ### Your Account Manager Your day-to-day point of contact, who coordinates every matter, keeps things moving, and already knows your file. They have your full history, so you start every conversation where the last one left off. ### Your Senior Account Manager Senior oversight on strategy and escalations, stepping in as your needs grow, so every important detail stays on track. A named person, on email or a call, at every step. ![Your dedicated GTC Customer Success Team](/assets/m-onboarding-bright-welcome-C-heDolY.jpg) How we compare ## Need a contract handled?
