Attorneys compute the amount of retainer and fees based on a number of factors, including:
 |
The difficulty of the case. |
|
|
The number of hours it is estimated the case will take. |
|
|
Knowledge and experience with the particular legal issues or the complexity of legal issues involved. |
|
|
The preclusive effect (opportunity costs) of taking a case. |
|
|
The type and location of the court in which the case will be heard. |
|
|
The extent of responsibilities assumed in agreeing to represent a particular client in a particular case. |
|
|
And other factors. |
In general, the longer the case is expected to take, the higher the cost of representation. Each case is different, and each client is different. This firm will give you and your case the time and attention you deserve and will work hard to resolve your dispute to your satisfaction.
