Common questions
How long does the process take?
Two hours from payment confirmation, during business hours (Mon–Fri 9am–6pm ET). The intake wizard takes approximately 5–20 minutes depending on agreement complexity.
What is a limited-scope retainer?
It is a formal engagement letter that makes you a Ruby client for this specific matter. You sign it before paying. It triggers solicitor-client privilege.
Does a real lawyer review my document?
Yes. Every Ruby agreement is reviewed by a licensed Canadian lawyer before delivery. There is no self-serve tier.
What happens after I sign the retainer?
Your payment is processed, your intake is routed to the reviewing lawyer, and the SLA clock starts. You will receive your document within two business hours.
