Payment and Performance Bond Review and Claim Package — Review and Redline
A markup of a Payment and Performance Bond Review and Claim Package you have been handed, the document that reads the bond, calendars the notice deadlines, and prepares the claim so the surety cannot deny on timing.
We separate the terms worth contesting from the ones that just look alarming. You receive a marked-up document plus a ranked issues memo that separates what must change from what is merely preference.
Frequently asked questions
The fee covers a full read of the counterparty's document against your position, a tracked-changes redline you can send back, and a ranked issues memo separating deal-breakers from trade material. It is fixed at this scope: one bond. 1 round of revisions are included. If your matter falls outside that scope we tell you before starting and quote the difference — we do not bill past a flat fee without agreeing it first.
3 to 5 business days from a complete set of instructions, plus time for the 1 round of revisions included in the fee. If you are working to a court deadline or a closing date, tell us when you order and we will confirm in writing whether we can meet it before you commit.
$1,050 is $325/hour × 3.25 hours — the time this deliverable takes in an ordinary payment matter, at the firm's standard rate. Because it is a flat fee, the risk of the work running long sits with the firm: you pay $1,050 whether it takes us the estimate or twice it.
Third-party costs are never inside a flat fee and are passed through at cost, never marked up: court and agency filing fees, court reporter and transcript charges, expert witness fees, search vendor and e-discovery hosting charges, process server fees, and travel.
What your business does, and who its users or customers are, the systems, vendors, and data flows the document has to describe accurately, any existing version, and what prompted this one, and any regulator, platform, or contract requirement you are working to. Send what you have — if something is missing we will tell you what else we need before the turnaround clock starts.
