Ex-it Strategy

Legal Fees: Who, What, Why, When and How Much?


Listen Later

In this episode

  • Why do you have to pay for an initial consultation. This is the reserved time for you to sit with your attorney to get a snapshot of what's going on and answer your questions, educate you of your legal rights and options, and help you develop your plan moving forward.
  • You will be listened to and not "talked-at."
  • Make sure you tell us all the facts, we are not biased or judgmental. We want to help you.
  • Really what an initial consultation boils down to is information gathering.
  • It is an extremely comprehensive consultation. 
  • If you do a consultation does that mean we are your attorney? No. It does conflict us out from representing your opposing party.
  • If I found an online template that is much cheaper, why should I hire an attorney? We discuss this mentality.
  • We talk about how legal fees work, what a retainer is, and how an attorney bills for their time.
  • We define what an hourly rate is from your attorney's perspective.
  • Can the opposing party pay for your initial retainer? 


Help your friends who may be going through a divorce go from victim to victorious and bitter to better.
