It depends on the scope of the opinion and on how many documents and legal questions have to be examined. A focused opinion on a single question can be ready in a few working days, while a multi-dimensional assessment spanning several areas of legislation, comparative law or a large set of documents can take a few weeks.
The factors that move the timetable are how clearly the question is framed, whether the necessary documents arrive complete and on time, and whether there is a foreign law dimension. For urgent decisions we usually work in two stages: first a short preliminary assessment that shows the direction, then the detailed opinion with its reasoning and sources. We agree the scope and the delivery date with you at the outset, against how urgent the matter really is.
