How Does Serenity Protect Benefit You?

Serenity Protect is designed to provide you with virtual in-house legal support without the expense of employing a full-time lawyer. Our service provides peace of mind to your board as you build and develop your business with confidence and knowledge that any legal risks are kept to a minimum. With the support of a virtual in-house lawyer in the background, supporting your legal needs whilst you focus on your business. Companies of all sizes face legal issues on a daily basis, from supply chain issues, customer disputes to breach of contract. Serenity Protect works quietly behind the scenes to ensure that issues are dealt with swiftly and efficiently without you losing focus on the day-to-day tasks.



How does the payment plan work?

For all new clients we offer a 3-month taster session which can then be cancelled after this time. We are confident however that you will immediately see the benefit of Serenity Protect within your company and wish to remain with us after the taster session has ended. Then following month 3, your chosen package will continue for a 12 month term which is then reviewed to ensure the package you are on is fit for purpose and a further 12 month subscription is continued. The three month taster session is only available to new clients.



Why do we suggest a 12-month model?

As you grow and develop your business you will undoubtedly enter new agreements, and amend existing ones. These bring about legal risk considerations and you may encounter unexpected legal issues over time as a result. In terms of location, you may be planning to grow within the UK, however if you want to expand internationally, Brexit has provided us with a new set of considerations that will need to be incorporated in anything you agree to within the EU going forward. Using the services of a virtual in-house lawyer through Serenity Protect provides you with an invisible layer of support that can be leant on throughout the journey of your business. Serenity Protect is tailored towards businesses who require ongoing legal support, rather than an ad-hoc service. You will have the added confidence of knowing your lawyer understands how your business works on a day-to-day basis and can help you make informed decisions with confidence as you manage your business.
