Frequently Asked Questions
What kinds of legal matters do you handle?
We handle corporate & commercial work (structuring, shareholders’ & unitholders’ agreements, JVs, contracts, governance) alongside financial services, credit & AML/CTF regulation. In practice, most engagements touch more than one of these areas, so we treat them as one integrated stream rather than separate silos.
Do you only act for regulated financial services businesses?
No. Many clients are AFSL/ACL holders, fintechs or other regulated businesses, but we also act for corporate groups, platforms, professional firms & growth‑stage businesses where our regulatory experience adds value. The common thread is organisations that care about clear contracts, governance & compliance, not one‑off template fixes.
How do you decide whether our matter is corporate, commercial or regulatory?
We look at your objective first (e.g. raise capital, launch a product, enter a JV, buy a business), then map which regimes and documents are actually in play. That usually tells us whether it’s primarily a corporate/commercial, financial services, credit, AML/CTF or mixed engagement, and we scope it accordingly.
Can you coordinate across AFSL, ACL & AML/CTF at the same time?
Yes. A big part of our value is joining up AFSL, ACL & AML/CTF issues with corporate & commercial work so everything points in the same direction. Instead of separate firms or teams working in isolation, we design structures, contracts & frameworks with all relevant regimes in mind.
How do you charge for work that spans multiple areas?
For multi‑regime projects we still try to break the work into clear stages (for example: licensing & structuring → key contracts → governance & compliance uplift). We typically use fixed or staged fees for each stage so you can see the scope, cost & milestones upfront, even if several regimes are involved.
Do you offer ongoing support or only one‑off projects?
Both. Some clients engage us for a specific need – an AFSL or ACL application, a governance reset, a suite of contracts – and then move to a Fractional General Counsel style arrangement once they see the value of having ongoing senior support. Others stay project‑based and come back when they have the next transaction or regulatory issue.
Can you work with our existing advisers?
Yes. We regularly work alongside internal legal/compliance, accountants, tax advisers & offshore counsel. Our role is to own the legal & regulatory risk piece, make sure the documents are coherent, and ensure advice from different advisers fits together rather than pointing in different directions.
How do we get started with Click Legal for legal & regulatory work?
You can contact us via the enquiry form, email or phone. We usually start with a short call to understand your business, licences, current documents & priorities, then propose a scoped engagement—starting with the highest‑impact issues—before any work begins.
