Initial interviews

In force from 20 May 2009

Initial interviews with prospective clients provide a good opportunity to understand what services your client wants and to agree the terms and conditions for providing your services with them.

This practice note outlines how effective communication of key information to the potential client will reduce the chances of disputes arising later in the retainer.
