Legal & compliance · Updated 14 November 2026
The fine print.
Because we read yours, we assume you will read ours. It is shorter than a soul lien and considerably easier to exit.
Other instrumentsIf you have signed something else, it is not covered here. Bring it to us. Bring a witness.

Privacy notice
We collect only what is necessary to assess and conduct a matter: your name, contact details, the nature of the manifestation, and any documents you choose to provide. We do not collect souls at intake. We do not sell data. We do not sell anything except our time, and occasionally our silence.
This static showcase does not use cookies, analytics or third-party tracking. All fonts, images and scripts are self-hosted. The intake form composes a message in your own mail client; it does not transmit data to a server and nothing you type is stored here.
In a live engagement, information would be held under legal privilege, retained for seven years after closure, and disclosed only where required by law, by a court of competent jurisdiction, or by a party that does not recognise the concept of a court. Our full privacy notice is available on request under separate cover.
Terms of engagement
No solicitor-client relationship arises until a written retainer has been signed and a conflict check completed. An email, a telephone call, a scream or a summons delivered by raven does not create a relationship.
- Fees are quoted in pounds sterling and exclude VAT, salt, tithes and disbursements.
- We do not guarantee outcomes. We guarantee process, discretion and documentation.
- We are not liable for acts of God. Acts of the other party are covered under the firm’s professional indemnity policy, up to the stated limit.
- Clients must disclose all relevant entities, contracts and prior rites. Non-disclosure may void the engagement and, in certain jurisdictions, the timeline.
- Nothing on this website is medical, psychiatric, veterinary or theological advice.
- Time is of the essence, except in jurisdictions where time is not admitted as evidence.
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales and, where applicable, the Nine Planes Accord. Disputes will be heard in the High Court or the nearest equivalent with jurisdiction over the parties, whichever is less dramatic.
Complaints
Complaints should be sent to complaints@bastion.radison.online within 28 days of the invoice. If the complaint concerns a deceased partner, please use the afterlife liaison and allow an additional nine business eternities.
We aim to acknowledge complaints within two business days and respond within five. Some matters take longer. Time is not uniform in all jurisdictions, and neither is the post.
Modern slavery statement
Bastion does not tolerate modern slavery, forced labour or unbounded servitude in its supply chain, its offices or its infernal contracts. All retainers are terminable on notice. All souls are held on trust, not by title.
Our 2025 audit found no instances of modern slavery. It did identify one instance of ancient servitude, which is being renegotiated by the partner responsible. The entity has requested that the matter be described as “a long-term arrangement”. We have declined.
