How does the Sajen Accord Work?
At Sajen legal, we decided that time-based billing wasn’t in the best interests of our clients, especially those who run small-to-medium-sized businesses.
So, our mission became providing small-to-medium-sized businesses with the highest-quality legal advice at a reasonable price.
We went back to the drawing board and did a lot of thinking about how we could deliver reasonably priced legal services to you – the client.

How will the Sajen Accord benefit your business?
Sajen Accord
The Sajen Accord saves you money and makes your legal costs predictable (because we can tell you exactly what they will be for the next year).
Predictable
Under the Sajen Accord, you won’t ever have to look at the clock, because we won’t bill you by the hour or minute. Most importantly, it ensures we can take the time to understand your business and provide you with the best possible advice for your particular situation.
Safety & Surety
It gives you security because you will no longer put off calling a lawyer because you are scared of the potential cost. In short, it is proactive rather than reactive.
Real Teamwork
Because we are business law specialists, we will provide you with commercially astute legal advice that is tailor-made for your business.
