Enter your details and we’ll email your full report and may follow up about LexSteward. We never store claimant data.

An illustrative estimate from the numbers you enter — not financial, tax, or legal advice, and not a quote. Nothing computes to anyone until you choose to email yourself the report; if you do, we relay it to LexSteward to send the report and may follow up, and we never store claimant data. This is an illustrative estimate for general informational purposes only. It is not legal, tax, or financial advice, it does not create an attorney–client relationship, and it is not a quote, promise, prediction, or guarantee of any benefit, amount, eligibility, deadline, or outcome. Figures are based on published government sources as of the date shown and change over time; results may not reflect current law or the facts of your situation. Do not rely on this tool; consult a licensed attorney before taking or refraining from any action.
What this proves

The flat-price moat widens with every hire — per-seat pricing taxes growth; one flat fee doesn’t.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Per-Seat vs. Flat “Cost as You Grow” Calculator show?

Project 3 years of per-seat software cost against one flat fee as you hire — see where the lines cross. It runs entirely in your browser on the numbers you enter.

Do you store my firm’s numbers?

No claimant data, ever. The math runs in your browser and computes to no one — until you choose to email yourself the full report, which relays your details to LexSteward so we can send it and follow up. That’s a business opt-in, not stored claimant data.

Is this financial or legal advice?

No. It’s an illustrative estimate from your own inputs to help you size a decision — not a quote, an audit, or advice. Confirm the numbers against your real invoices and books.

Can LexSteward actually fix this?

That’s the point of the platform: one flat-fee system with the marketing engine, case management, billing, client portal, and a built-in AI (Ward) that does the routine work — so the cost, admin, and leakage this tool surfaces have one place to go.
