These require licensed employment counsel. We refer to vetted attorneys when situations call for it (no additional charge).
Refund policy
Full refund if we miss a material issue:
- Your attorney later identifies a significant negotiable we missed
- The recommendation we provided was substantively wrong
- The state law citation was incorrect
- Any other material defect in the analysis
Email hello@trycounteroffer.com with specifics; we refund within 5 business days. No friction, no questions, no extended back-and-forth.
The refund policy is designed to align our incentives with yours. We earn our fee only when we deliver value.
No subscriptions, no add-ons
We don't sell:
- Monthly subscriptions
- Tiered "premium" reviews with marketing tricks
- Add-on services beyond the $299 prep call
- Recurring fees of any kind
The $199 is the full price for the review. The $299 prep call add-on is optional. That's the entire pricing structure.
Multiple reviews
If you need multiple documents reviewed:
- Each separate contract is a separate review at $199
- For related documents (offer letter + employment agreement + equity grant docs), submit as one packet and we review as one review at one fee
- For significantly later-in-time follow-up reviews on the same contract (e.g., updated severance after first round of negotiation), we offer 50% discount on the second review
Comparison to alternatives
- ChatGPT: Free or $20/month. Quality limitations described in Counteroffer vs ChatGPT.
- Employment lawyer: $400-$1,500/hour, $3K-$15K typical engagement. Higher quality on complex matters but much higher cost.
- Hybrid (Counteroffer + attorney): $199 + 1-hour attorney consultation. Captures most attorney value at fraction of full engagement cost.
For most situations, Counteroffer at $199 is the high-ROI choice.
