The Right Solutions: Parachute or Bridge.

A solution is only as good as the problem it is trying to solve.
–The Parachute and Bridge Team

Defining the problem correctly; you define the correct solution.
Anyone can sell a solution. A typical lawyer can write a legally-sound document.

We’re different because we learn your business and properly define the problem to be solved – a critical step that’s often overlooked. This is important because sometimes the obvious “problem” isn’t what needs a solution. The Parachute and Bridge team looks deeper and, as a result, we solve smarter. Our legal resource solution is robust, commercial and much more cost-effective than hiring a law firm.

We are also agile and dependable. We are your business partner.

Think of a Parachute. Now think of a Bridge.

What do they have in common?

The fundamental quality that is inherent in both, is trust.

When you open a parachute, you trust that it will respond quickly and open properly when you need it. When you step out onto a bridge, you trust that it will hold dependably. You rely on the professionals that made them.

Whether you want to build a bridge or need an emergency parachute*, you can trust that we know what we are doing, so you and your business can get on with expanding, overcoming that obstacle, or taking that leap.

* We prefer that our Clients contact us before they need a parachute. We prefer to equip our clients and teach them how to use a parachute, before they need to bail out of a problem scenario.

We work within or closely aligned to your business, to best understand the problem, the stakeholders and the solution. This way, we maximise the effectiveness of our legal and strategic services and solutions, to best achieve your and your business’ success.

Let’s first discuss what you need and price it from there.
