Billing

Billing Philosophy

I believe that the legal process should be accessible to everyone, especially for what I consider to be necessary services such as probate, estate planning, and family law matters.  Therefore, I charge a fair and reasonable rate that also reflects the high value and quality of the legal services I provide.  I firmly believe in the predictability of legal fees and so I offer flat-fee arrangements whenever possible.  Much of my job entails helping you plan for the future and part of that process is helping you avoid unexpected and unforeseen costs.  Effective and prudent planning requires knowledge of both current and future expenses, and legal fees should be no different.

Billing Specifics

You will find many of the flat fees for basic services in the specific practice area sections of this website:

• Wills, Trusts, & Estate Planning Prices
• Probate Administration Prices
• Divorce & Child Custody Representation Prices
• Divorce & Child Custody Mediation Prices 
• Limited Representation Prices

Payment.   I send bills for my hourly time on a monthly basis or at the conclusion of a project.  Payment plans can be arranged if necessary.  I accept multiple forms of payment, including:

• Cash
• Check
• Debit Card
• Credit Card (Visa, Mastercard, Discover)

If you wish to pay a bill online with a credit card, you can easily do so by clicking the "Pay a Bill" button near the top of the main page.  You will be directed to a secure online payment window and a receipt will be automatically emailed to you.

All billing will be conducted according to the terms set forth in the Representation Agreement signed by us both prior to commencing representation.
