Services
Most firms know AI is coming and worry about getting it wrong against their SRA duties. Each package answers one question a firm actually asks, at a price agreed in writing before you instruct us, so you can act without signing up to open-ended fees.
The work is led by Saqib Khan, a law firm owner for fourteen years and a fee-paid county court judge for four. It starts from your duties as a regulated practice rather than from the technology, and every recommendation comes with its reasoning written down, so you can explain it to the SRA, a client or an insurer in your own words.
For a firm that wants a quick, free sense of where it stands.
A short online check of how ready your firm is to adopt AI safely. Seven questions, an instant result and a sensible first step, with nothing to pay.
FreeTwo-minute check

For a firm uneasy about the rules across the places it works.
A written governance review mapping your AI use against your current and anticipated regulatory obligations across the UK, EU and UAE, with a gap analysis and an action plan specific to your sector.

A requirements brief, a longlist of five to eight vendors, an evaluation framework, a recommendation report and a negotiation guidance note.

£1,850*plus VAT
*Figures are indicative and fixed in writing before work begins, with travel charged at cost. VAT registration has been applied for, so VAT is added to invoices from the date HMRC confirms the number.
The price agreed in writing before you instruct us is the price you pay, whatever the work turns out to involve. If we do not deliver what that document says we will deliver, you do not pay for it. No firm should carry the risk of an open-ended bill for advice it has not yet seen.
Before any work starts you receive a written confirmation setting out the scope, the deliverable, the inputs we need from you, the assumptions behind the price and anything excluded. The inputs are deliberately light. We work from short conversations with the people you choose, your policies and your supplier contracts, arranged around your diary, and our delivery does not normally require access to client matter files.
Adliora is a management consultancy. It is not a law firm and it is not regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority, so its deliverables are governance, operational and commercial assessments rather than legal advice or a legal opinion. Where a piece of work turns up a question that needs formal legal advice, we identify it plainly and work alongside your regulated legal adviser rather than around them.
When a firm needs more than a single piece of work, we run a full bespoke advisory engagement, taking you from diagnostic through strategy to implementation over eight to twelve weeks. A board-ready strategic blueprint starts at £12,500 plus VAT, a sector-specific legal readiness audit for a solicitors' practice at £5,500 plus VAT, and a phased transformation programme is scoped individually from £35,000 plus VAT. Each one is priced in writing before you instruct us, on the same terms as the packages above.
For continuing support, a fractional Chief AI Officer retainer gives you senior AI leadership a set number of days a month, without the cost of a full-time hire. The retainer is built on a day rate of £1,800, so one day a month is £1,800, two days a month £3,600 and three days a month £5,400, all plus VAT. The term is a minimum of three months, fixed in writing before any work begins.
Clear steps, a fee agreed in writing, and a record you keep.
When you get in touch we reply within one working day and arrange a short call to understand your firm and the question in front of it. There is no charge for that conversation and no obligation to go further.
We then confirm the scope and a fixed fee in writing before any work starts, so you know the cost and the deliverable from the outset. Travel, where it applies, is charged at cost and agreed in advance.
You receive a written deliverable and a debrief, set out in plain terms your team can act on. What we recommend is yours to keep, whether or not you instruct us again, and every recommendation leaves a clear trail, a written record of what was decided and why, ready for the day a regulator, a client or an insurer asks.
The points firms raise before they get in touch.
The packages are built for small and mid-sized practices, not for large firms with their own technology teams. The Readiness Audit is the usual starting point precisely because it tells you whether AI is worth your time and money before you commit to anything larger.
Confidentiality sits at the centre of every engagement. We work from your duties as a regulated practice, our delivery does not normally require access to client matter files, and we show you how to keep client information under the firm's control and prove that you did.
The work is arranged to keep interruption low. The audit and the governance review run mostly on our side, with short structured input from your team. The workshops are half a day or a day, arranged around your diary, and they leave your people clearer about what they can and cannot do rather than slower.
Each package stands on its own, so you take only what your firm needs. Many firms start with a single piece of work, see the value, then decide whether a longer engagement or a retainer makes sense.
Fees and scope
Every package carries a fixed fee and a one-page scope agreed before work starts, and each stands alone, so you take only the piece your firm needs. If you are unsure which piece answers your situation, describe the situation and we will tell you plainly, including where the honest answer is none of them. Unsure where the firm stands? The two-minute readiness check will tell you.
