Our Work
How We Work
First, you and Kendra or Andy will have a conversation about what you want to do (or what’s going on), and how we can help.
Initial consultations are almost always free. If we’re not able to help, we’ll let you know, and we may be able to suggest someone who is a better fit.
Second, we’ll work together to figure out how it makes sense to structure the representation, and what you need.
After we have a first conversation, we’ll write you a proposal/summary of what we think makes sense. We don’t have one model for working with clients, because we don’t have one type of client. Some of our clients engage us for a period and we handle matters as they come up, whereas others have a discrete legal problem where we write one memo and send them on their merry way. (For those who don’t work with attorneys super often, a memo is a document that lays out the relevant law and a client’s options. It’s the standard work product for lots of matters.)
We don’t have one model for fees, either. We work with clients on both project-based and hourly models, depending on the circumstances. We also take some pro bono and low bono work. Don’t let worries about money stop you from reaching out to us.
While representation is underway, we’ll keep talking.
Once we’ve created a plan, we’ll work together to make it happen. With some of our clients, that looks like standing meetings, and for others, we may just check in via email in between milestones. We try to structure our work together to incentivize collaboration and open communication. We’d always rather figure out how to minimize risk up front than find you needing our services in an emergency.
After a project, we’re still here.
Even once a project wraps up, we’re still here! We keep a broad docket because we love the cool stuff our clients get up to, and we’re here for whatever you do next.

Who We Work With
Sometimes it’s easier to understand things if you have examples. Past clients of Kendra and Andy include:
Advocacy to allow libraries, archives and museums to preserve software and make it available to scholars
First Amendment risk analysis around provision of security advice to potentially criminalized users
Coordinated vulnerability disclosure of cybersecurity issues in voting software
