This is the first in a series of posts describing different fee arrangements offered by attorneys.
Okay, so you know you need an attorney. You found one (or a bunch) you like and might hire. But how do you decide whether you’re paying too much? Do you have any idea what a contingency fee is, or whether it’d be better to pay an hourly rate? Can you offer a percentage stake in your business if you have one? What the heck is a retainer, if you’re not at an orthodontist?
The next series of posts will be a nice little series about the ways you might end up paying a lawyer. It’s not enough just to compete on “price,” because not all prices are created equal. Consider your optionsl carefully, and you may find you’re able to avoid paying too much.
