Legal Matters
Effective July 1, 2007, my billing rate is $225.00 per hour, plus expenses. Hourly billing is calculated to the closest one-tenth (1/10th) hour for all time spent on a matter, including conferences with clients, legal research, telephone calls, drafting documents, court appearances, meetings with any attorney, party, investigator, witness or person in regards to the case and travel time. Interim bills are sent out monthly, and must be paid within thirty (30) days.
Certain types of cases may be taken on a contingency fee basis. In such a case, a written Contingency Fee Agreement will be prepared that will detail the fee arrangement. In any event, ethical rules require that the client will be responsible for costs or expenses of the case regardless of the outcome.
