Monthly retainers

You're buying time with someone who
actually knows what to do with it.

Every retainer tier gives you a block of senior-level HR hours each month — yours to direct however your business needs. Policy work, compliance questions, a tricky employee situation, a payroll issue you just discovered. You set the priorities. We execute.

Up to 10 hours / month

Billing

Retainers are prepaid monthly or billed twice a month — whichever works best for your business.

Rate stability

Your rate doesn't change until your scope changes. No surprise increases, no annual bumps without a conversation.

Unused hours

Hours are allocated monthly. If your needs shift significantly, we'll revisit your tier together — not unilaterally.

One-off projects

Not ready for a retainer?
That's fine too.

Some work is a one-time need — a handbook audit, an entity formation, a tricky termination that needs to be handled right. We take on project-based work at our standard hourly rate. No retainer required, no minimum commitment. The list below is just a sample — if you have something else entirely, reach out and we'll let you know if we can help.

$100
per hour
  • One-time policy or handbook work
  • Entity formations & state registrations
  • Payroll audits & error recovery
  • Termination & separation support
  • HR compliance assessments
  • Sensitive employee situations
