Legal Fees

We chose our profession because we are passionate about what we do. Our clients come to us because they are in financial distress.  We recognize this and we make our fees reasonable, focusing on long term relationships and satisfaction.

For our non-profit and small business clients we offer individualized services that often cost far less than the fees charged by large law firms. We can do this because we have a lean firm structure, we do not spend large sums of money on advertising and we specialized early on in an area of the law we love and we are good at. Our fees are transparent and often we offer flat fees and tell our client how much something will cost upfront.

We want our clients to grow and succeed and we focus on the long-term benefits of a mutually beneficial relationship.
