Pricing and Estimates

Understand the difference between hourly pricing, flat-fee packages, retainers and custom estimates.

Basic core services are generally priced between $45 and $65 per hour. Premium or more advanced services are generally priced between $65 and $85 per hour. The applicable rate depends on the type and complexity of the work requested.

CVD currently offers three general flat-fee options:

  • Basic Package: $250
  • Premium Package: $300
  • Elite Package: $750

Each package is intended for a defined scope. Additional pages, sets, revisions or custom work may require an updated estimate.

Flat-fee pricing is generally best when the project fits within a clearly defined package. Hourly pricing is often better when the volume, file condition, complexity or required deliverables cannot be determined in advance.
Published prices provide a starting point. A flat-fee price applies when the project fits the agreed package scope. Additional volume, complexity, revisions or shortened deadlines may change the final price.
Bulk document-review projects are quoted individually. Pricing may depend on page or file count, current condition, indexing requirements, Bates-labeling needs, requested deliverables and deadline.

Timing and Deadlines

Understand how project timing, availability and rush requests are handled.

Completion time depends on the type of service, project volume, file condition, complexity, required deliverables and current availability. A proposed timeline should be confirmed before the project begins.
