Payment Terms - Quick Order Legal Documents

All payments made are for a fixed-fee legal document preparation service provided by Code & Clause Legal.

This service includes the drafting, customisation, and delivery of legal documents selected by the client through the Quick Order Legal Documents platform. Documents are prepared strictly based on the information submitted by the client through the intake form and may include contracts, policies, agreements, compliance documents, or regulatory instruments depending on the selected request.

This service is an execution-only service and does not include live consultation, legal advisory, negotiation support, strategic structuring advice, or ongoing legal representation unless expressly agreed in a separate written engagement.

Each order constitutes a single, discrete document production engagement. No ongoing solicitor-client, advisory, or professional relationship is created beyond the specific document or documents ordered unless a separate written agreement is entered into.

Full payment is required in advance before any work begins. No drafting, review, or production will commence until payment has been successfully received and the required intake form has been completed.

Where multiple documents are selected in a single order, the scope is limited strictly to the items specified in the confirmed order.

After payment, the client must complete a detailed intake form providing all required information for document preparation. Failure to complete the intake form may delay delivery timelines.

Code & Clause Legal is not responsible for delays arising from incomplete, unclear, or inaccurate submissions. Where information is missing or materially insufficient, we reserve the right to pause or reject the order until clarified.

All fees are displayed in the client's local currency where supported. Clients are responsible for all applicable taxes, including VAT or equivalent where applicable, bank charges, foreign exchange or currency conversion fees, and payment processor charges imposed by financial institutions.

Delivery timelines vary depending on document complexity, jurisdiction, and client responsiveness. Standard turnaround timelines, where applicable, will be communicated at the point of order or within the intake confirmation process.

Where delays arise due to incomplete information, unclear instructions, or client revisions outside the original scope, delivery timelines will automatically extend.

Each document includes up to two rounds of revisions strictly limited to the original scope of instructions submitted in the intake form. Revisions beyond this limit will attract additional charges based on scope complexity.

• Material changes include new commercial terms.
• Material changes include change of jurisdiction.
• Material changes include structural redrafting.
• Material changes include expansion beyond original instructions.

Any revision beyond the included two rounds will be charged at an additional fee of 20%-40% of the original document fee, depending on complexity and scope expansion.

The Quick Order Legal Documents service is a document drafting and production service only. It does not constitute legal consultation, continuous advisory services, or representation in negotiations or disputes.

Clients requiring legal advice must book a separate Legal Advisory Session.

The client agrees to provide accurate, complete, and truthful information, ensure all instructions reflect their intended commercial position, use documents for lawful purposes only, and review outputs carefully before execution or reliance.

Code & Clause Legal is not responsible for outcomes arising from incomplete or incorrect client instructions.

All documents are prepared based on information provided by the client and applicable legal principles relevant to the indicated jurisdiction. The client is solely responsible for how documents are used, executed, or implemented.

All information submitted through the intake form and during the drafting process will be treated as confidential, subject to applicable legal and professional obligations.

Upon full payment, the client is granted a non-exclusive licence to use the delivered document or documents for internal or commercial purposes.

Code & Clause Legal retains ownership of drafting methodologies, templates, frameworks, clause libraries, and structural systems.

Code & Clause Legal reserves the right to decline any order, request clarification before proceeding, and refuse work outside our legal or professional scope. Where an order is declined after payment, a refund will be issued.

All payments are final and non-refundable once work has commenced. Refunds may only be issued where we are unable to deliver the requested document or where a material error occurs on our part that cannot be reasonably corrected.

No refunds are issued for change of mind, incorrect or incomplete client instructions, delay caused by client responsiveness, or dissatisfaction with disclosed jurisdictional limitations.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Code & Clause Legal's total liability arising from any Quick Order Legal Document engagement is limited to the amount paid for the specific document or documents.

We are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, loss of business, revenue, funding, or opportunity, or regulatory, commercial, or operational outcomes arising from document use.

Payments are processed via third-party payment providers including Paystack and Stripe, depending on the client's location and checkout configuration. Clients may be charged in their local currency where supported, including Nigerian Naira (NGN), United States Dollar (USD), British Pound (GBP), or Euro (EUR). Where a local currency is not supported, USD will apply as the default billing currency.

By completing payment, the client acknowledges and agrees that payment processing is handled entirely by third-party payment providers, Code & Clause Legal does not control or guarantee payment gateway uptime, processing speed, or transaction approval, and Code & Clause Legal is not responsible for delays, failures, or reversals caused by banks, card issuers, or payment processors.

Clients are responsible for ensuring their payment method is valid, funded, and authorised for international or cross-border transactions. All bank charges, foreign exchange fees, currency conversion fees, or international transaction fees imposed by their financial institution are their sole responsibility.

Any variation in exchange rates applied by payment providers or banks does not affect the agreed service fee. Code & Clause Legal is not liable for discrepancies arising from currency conversion or payment gateway pricing fluctuations.

Where a transaction is successfully processed but later reversed or charged back without valid reason, Code & Clause Legal reserves the right to suspend delivery of services, withhold delivery until payment is reinstated, and decline future engagements with the client.

These terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them, including non-contractual disputes, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. The client agrees that the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with these terms.

The client acknowledges that Code & Clause Legal is a cross-border legal services business and provides services to clients globally, including but not limited to Nigeria, the United Kingdom, the European Union, the United States, and other jurisdictions.

The client further agrees that the applicability of local laws in the client's jurisdiction does not override the governing law of this agreement, Code & Clause Legal may rely on mandatory provisions of local law only where strictly required for compliance or enforcement purposes, and nothing in these terms prevents Code & Clause Legal from seeking enforcement, injunctive relief, or debt recovery in any jurisdiction where the client operates or holds assets.

By making payment, you confirm that you have read and understood these terms and agreed to be bound by them.
