One of the highlights of this approach is the client’s ability to supervise and manage the ongoing legal tasks, projects, etc., while there are being executed, which means that the client is able to alter the project at any time. This also creates absolute transparency and flexibility in regard of the project in question, which allows to adjust the project to needs of the client at any stage of its execution.
