Retainers are deposits paid to a lawyer and held in a trust account for legal fees billed at an hourly rate. As work is completed on your matter, fees are billed against this deposit. Initial retainers typically range from $1,500 to $5,000. Invoices are provided before any funds are withdrawn from the retainer, ensuring you are aware of the services provided and your current costs.
Our goal is to keep you fully informed about your legal fees every step of the way, preventing any surprises.
