Fee Structures for Disputes, Mediation, and Litigation
First, we offer free initial consultations--typically over the phone--to discuss your legal concerns and determine whether we will establish an attorney-client relationship to pursue resolution of the issues for which you reached out to us.
Second, we offer paid consultations to provide legal analysis and advice. You may have a concern or need some legal work done, but you are not ready to hire a full-scope attorney. We can set up a time to sit down with you either in person or virtually and give a full review and legal analysis of the issues. This could include review of documents, legal research, and a memo to you giving our legal opinion.
Third, we offer limited scope representation, where we might perform a discrete task for you, such as draft a court document, with the understanding you are self-represented in the case as a whole.
Finally, and most commonly, we offer full scope representation, where we handle your case from start to finish.
There is not a one-size-fits-all approach to fee arrangements. Every client is different and each case or matter is unique. Payment for services can vary from up-front refundable retainers, to direct pay, to flat fees, depending on the complexity of the matter.
The fee structure that we agree upon with you will be detailed in a fee agreement that you will sign prior to engaging our firm to provide any services to you. Contact us today to learn more.
