FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • We strive to deliver the highest quality final product. However, as humans, mistakes can happen. If you find an error after we’ve delivered the final product, we will refund the amount you paid for the service. Please note that names are unique and ultimately your responsibility to verify; we cannot provide refunds for errors involving names. Similarly, we will not cover costs if the material has already gone to print. If the error is due to incorrect information provided by you (e.g., wrong locations, dates, times, or names), we cannot be held responsible. No refunds for large book editings will be issued.

  • The key difference between proofreading and professional editing is the depth of the service. Proofreading focuses solely on identifying and correcting errors in grammar, spelling, punctuation, and formatting. Professional editing, on the other hand, goes further by refining your sentences, improving clarity, and rephrasing when necessary to ensure the content is as strong and impactful as possible.

  • Yes, we do offer rush services for tight deadlines. These are subject to an additional fee of 30–50% of the base price, depending on the workload and the urgency of the request.

  • All documents are treated with the utmost confidentiality. They will never be shared with anyone and will be securely discarded after our sessions are complete. Your privacy and trust are our top priorities.
