FAQ
Common questions.
What does Clearview's enterprise practice look like?
Clearview offers hands-on, responsive support across complex transactions, technology agreements, IP strategy, and privacy programs. Engagements are scoped to matters within Clearview's practice area, with consistent lawyer involvement throughout the work.
Can you handle matters across multiple jurisdictions?
Clearview can coordinate with local counsel on multi-jurisdictional matters. For Ontario law specifically, Clearview provides direct counsel; for other jurisdictions, the firm works with trusted outside counsel while supporting overall coordination.
How do you handle conflicts with other clients?
Clearview maintains rigorous conflict checking and will transparently address any potential conflicts before engagement.
What's your approach to billing?
Clearview is flexible: hourly, fixed fee, capped arrangements, and success-based structures depending on the matter. Clearview is happy to discuss the approach that best aligns interests with yours for each engagement.
Do you work with clients outside of Ontario?
Yes. Clearview is an Ontario law firm but works remotely (as permitted) with clients in other provinces and internationally when the matter is within Clearview's practice scope.
