01The firm

Every organization runs on work nobody sees: the records, the filings, the follow-up. We are the firm that runs it properly.

Corvane Ashmoor & Co. combines operational consulting with hands-on professional services, so a client receives both the plan and its execution, from one firm, under one standard.

We work three ways. We advise, diagnosing what slows an operation and designing the fix. We execute, carrying out the work ourselves. And we connect: when a matter belongs to a licensed professional, we source, verify and introduce one, and the client contracts with them directly.

About the firm →

02How we work
I.

We advise

Consulting by industry. We study how your operation actually runs, identify what slows it, and map the remedy.

II.

We execute

Back office, dispatch, research, filings, documentation and attorney-directed casework, delivered and documented.

III.

We connect

Where a license is required, we source the professional, verify license and insurance, and compare written quotes.

03See the difference

From scattered to systematic.

Drag the handle. On the left, the way most operations run: loose paper, missed deadlines, nothing where it should be. On the right, the same operation after an engagement.

06Our approach

Four phases. No guesswork.

I

II

Define

A written scope: what we will do, what it costs, when it is due, and what goes to a licensed professional.

  • Written scope and fee
  • Licensing boundaries identified
III

Execute

We do the work, or coordinate the vetted professionals who must, and keep you informed throughout.

  • Delivery against scope
  • Regular status updates
IV

Document

Every engagement closes with a clean record and an itemized invoice. Systems are handed over in full.

  • Records and handover

13Questions

Frequently asked.

All questions →

What does Corvane Ashmoor & Co. do?

We are a consulting and professional services firm. We advise clients on how their operations run, we carry out the work itself (back office, dispatch, research, filings, documents and attorney-directed litigation support), and when a matter requires a licensed professional, we find, verify and introduce one.

Is the firm a law firm? Do you provide legal advice?

No. Ashmoor Casework, our litigation support practice, works at the direction of licensed attorneys. For the public, our work is limited to records, research and documents prepared from information you supply. We never give legal advice or choose legal forms on anyone's behalf.

How are engagements priced?

Every engagement is quoted in writing before work begins: a fixed project fee, hourly, a monthly retainer, or a percentage of gross for carrier dispatch. An initial conversation carries no charge.

What happens when a matter requires a licensed professional?

We say so at the outset. We identify qualified licensed professionals, verify license and insurance, review complaint history, and gather comparable written quotes. You contract with the professional directly, and we coordinate as agreed.

Does the firm broker freight?

No. Our dispatch practice acts for the motor carrier under a written dispatcher-carrier agreement. The carrier signs its own rate confirmations and is paid directly.
