What’s included in a comprehensive law school package vs. hourly?

These are fundamentally different products, built for different situations.

A comprehensive package covers the full strategic arc of a law school application: Discovery and Strategic Positioning (including our BEACON™ diagnostic and kickoff deep dive), a tailored Law School Strategy Brief, and the Exhaustive Iterative Drafting Process for your personal statement, diversity statement, and all addenda. You work with a lead consultant who owns strategy and positioning, plus a dedicated essay specialist who works at the sentence level. That dual-role model isn’t an upgrade — it’s the baseline.

The difference between tiers is number of schools, not scope. Silver, Gold, and Platinum all include the full core service — strategy, personal statement, resume development, letters of recommendation support, interview prep, post-admit decision support, and waitlist strategy — with coverage for 1, 5, or 10 applications respectively. All tiers also include access to the T14 Audit™: a blind review by a second seasoned consultant who evaluates your materials the way an admissions committee would, with zero context and zero bias. For candidates targeting the most competitive programs or managing complex profiles, this additional perspective can be genuinely valuable.

Hourly and à la carte work is different. It’s best for candidates who already have a coherent strategy and need a targeted second opinion — sharpening a personal statement, prepping for an interview, or getting a post-rejection diagnostic on what went wrong. What it’s not designed to do is replace full-cycle consulting. Building a coherent application argument across multiple schools takes sustained strategic work, not a one-off session.

The consultation call is where we sort this out. For law applicants, the deciding factors are usually practical ones: time, budget, and how much support you actually need.
