This is the last of a series of posts describing different fee arrangements offered by attorneys.
Now that you know something about the various ways that you can pay a lawyer, evaluate each of those methods as best you can as they apply to your case. Feel free to suggest whatever method you think would be best for you.
Whatever you do, though, GET THE AGREEMENT IN WRITING. It is against ethics rules under most circumstances for a lawyer to not give you a written retainer agreement. You want to be protected by the content of some document.

About Me

- I am an elder law attorney with my own solo practice. I'm located in central New Jersey but I make house calls. I am in the business of setting the elderly and their caregivers at ease, by making sure they have high-quality health care they can afford, and governmental benefits they're entitled to.
