Built on Value, Not the Clock.
Legal pricing hasn’t changed much since the 1920s. The world has.
For decades, law firms have billed in six-minute increments—a system designed for a paper-based economy, long before modern healthcare regulation, advanced technology, or AI-augmented legal work. At Rivet Health Law, we believe that model no longer serves clients.
Continuing to bill by the hour in today’s legal economy is like charging by the mile after inventing the airplane. It misunderstands what the client is buying—and what the professional is providing.
Our clients don’t pay for time. They pay for outcomes, judgment, and value.
That’s why Rivet Health Law focuses on clear, predictable pricing structures that align legal fees with the real value of our services, while remaining affordable and transparent.
What You Can Expect
– No six-minute increments
– No surprise invoices
– Clear alignment between cost and value
– Pricing models designed for modern healthcare law
Flat Fees
Certainty from the Start
For well-defined matters, we offer flat-fee pricing—a single, agreed-upon price for a clearly scoped service.
Best for:
- Regulatory analyses and compliance reviews
- Contract drafting or review
- Discrete advisory projects
- Policy development and documentation
Why it works:
Flat fees provide cost certainty and eliminate billing anxiety. You know the price upfront, and we stay focused on delivering results—not tracking time.
Subscription Model
Ongoing Counsel Without the Meter Running
Physicians and other healthcare providers often need consistent, proactive legal support, not one-off advice. Our subscription model provides access to legal counsel for a predictable monthly fee.
Our subscription model provides ongoing access to legal counsel for a predictable monthly fee.
Best for:
- Growing healthcare companies
- Providers navigating ongoing regulatory change
- Organizations that need regular guidance without hourly billing
- Practices that need legal counsel on a continual basis but not needed full-time
What it delivers:
- Continuous access to health law expertise
- Faster answers and proactive issue-spotting
- Budget stability and predictable legal spend
This model treats legal services like a strategic partnership—not a transactional expense.
Contingency Fees for Claim Appeals
Aligned Incentives When Outcomes Matter Most
For certain claim appeals and reimbursement disputes, we offer contingency-based pricing tied to successful recovery.
Best for:
- Denied or underpaid healthcare claims
- Appeals where financial recovery is the primary goal
- Claim paid at a low qualifying payment amount under the No Surprises Act
- Fee schedule disputes
Why it works:
Our incentives align with yours. We only succeed when you do, allowing clients to pursue legitimate claims without upfront legal costs.
Value-Anchored Discretionary Pricing
Flexible Fees Grounded in Real Value
Not every legal matter fits neatly into a traditional box. We use Value-Anchored Discretionary Pricing.
How it works:
- Fees are anchored to the value, risk, and impact of the matter
- We agree upfront of a defined scope of work
- Pricing reflects strategic importance—not time spent. We provided a reference fee range.
- At the conclusion of the matter, you determine the final fee based on the value you believe the work delivered.
This approach recognizes that the true value of legal counsel lies in insight, experience, and decision-making—not hours logged.
What this does not change
- The quality, diligence, and responsiveness of our work
- Our professional obligations and independence
- Our commitment to delivering clear, practical advice
