Pricing
One flat fee per project.
You see the full fee, the deliverable, and the deadline in writing before you decide. Nothing starts until you agree.
What sets the fee
I do not publish a rate card. The records decide the work, and the same deliverable can take very different amounts of effort. The fee reflects:
- Volume of records
- The number of statements, pages, and transactions to process.
- Accounts and assets
- How many accounts and what kinds.
- Period covered
- The length of the accounting period or review period.
- Condition of the records
- Complete and clean, or scanned, out of order, or missing months.
- The deliverable
- What you need produced, and the court's required form where one applies.
- The deadline
- Standard turnaround, or accepted rush work (see below).
What the fee includes
- A written quote
- In a one-page project order, before any work begins.
- The defined deliverable
- Exactly what the project order describes, including cover sheets, indexes, and supporting schedules where the deliverable calls for them.
- One round of revisions
- Requested after delivery.
If the scope changes
If the work grows beyond the project order, I stop and send a written change quote. That covers added accounts, a longer period, new documents after work begins, and further revision rounds. I do not do out-of-scope work without your written approval.
Payment and turnaround
- Payment
- The payment terms are stated in the project order. Work begins when I have the complete source documents and the payment the order calls for.
- Standard turnaround
- About 10 business days from receipt of complete documents. The project order states the delivery date.
- Rush work
- I discourage it. When I accept it, it costs significantly more, and the amount is stated in the project order.
