How a Business Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Consent Agreement in California

In 2025, a business in California sought assistance with drafting a consent agreement. The client required the agreement to address the transfer of funds from one entity to another, ensuring that after a significant payment, there would be no further fees and the full amount could be accessed without issues. Additionally, provisions were needed for legal recourse should the funds not be transferred as agreed. As a result, the client received three proposals from licensed lawyers, with flat fee bids ranging from $699 to $998. All proposals were submitted to meet the requested deadline of less than one week.
