Flat Fee Pricing

Why Flat Fees?

Flat fee pricing means that instead of billing hourly for every phone call, email, or meeting, we provide an upfront, transparent price for our services. This model offers several advantages:

  1. Clarity and Predictability: Clients no longer need to worry about escalating costs or surprise invoices. From the outset, you’ll know exactly what your legal fees will be for a defined scope of work.

  2. Focus on Value, Not Time: With hourly billing, there’s often a perception that efficiency conflicts with thoroughness. Flat fees allow us to focus on delivering quality work without the clock ticking in the background.

  3. Enhanced Trust: Transparency builds trust. Knowing the cost upfront allows clients to make informed decisions without fear of hidden fees.

  4. Streamlined Process: Flat fees simplify the billing process for everyone, letting us focus on what matters most—serving our clients.

How It Works

Not all legal matters are the same, and neither are our flat fees. We’ve developed a pricing structure based on the complexity and scope of different services. Here’s what you can expect:

During our initial consultation, we’ll gather information about your case to determine the expected scope of work and identify the variables that may affect the price. Then, we’ll provide a flat fee quote for the anticipated scope of work. 

Think of it like hiring a painter to paint the walls in your house. The painter can’t offer a one-size-fits-all price that covers any painting job, but she will come to the house, take measurements, assess the conditions, determine how much material and labor she’ll need, and then quote a price. No two jobs are the same, so each client may be quoted a different price. After all, you shouldn’t pay the same price to paint your 10x10 room with bare walls as your neighbor pays for a 20x20 room that needs drywall repair. 

While flat fees work well for many of our services, some cases may still require a hybrid approach to account for variables that may arise along the way that we can’t accurately predict. In these instances, we’ll always provide a clear estimate and keep you informed every step of the way.

A Commitment to Our Clients

Our shift to flat fee pricing is rooted in our commitment to providing exceptional service and reducing stress for our clients. We believe this approach aligns with our mission to offer compassionate, transparent, and effective legal representation as well as our continuous improvement mindset.

We believe flat fee billing can be a win/win, providing certainty for us and our clients and incentivizing us both to work efficiently to conclude the case. For those clients who prefer hourly billing, we’re happy to offer that as well.
