An advanced fee is money paid to a law firm before work begins or as the case progresses to fund future legal services and costs. At Best Law Firm, full representation requires a $3,500 advance fee. That money is held in trust and earned as work is performed.

The fee agreement spells out exactly what the advance fee covers, how fees are earned, how costs are handled, and what happens to any remaining funds when representation ends. We send the fee agreement before any work begins. No exceptions.

We bill in six-minute increments. Every entry on the statement reflects actual work done on your file. If you have questions about a billing statement, ask. We would rather answer the question than have a client wondering.
