When someone hires a lawyer, they will likely have two kinds of expense: fees and costs. Fees are paid to compensate attorneys for the work they and their staffs do. Fees—Fees can be set in different ways. The two ways used by the Marshall Defense Firm are hourly fees and fixed fees. Hourly fees are fees computed at so many dollars per hour. The client’s total expense in fees depends on the amount of time attorneys and paralegals work for the client. The attorney takes payment monthly for the previous month’s work. A fixed fee (sometimes called a “flat fee”) is a fee set for the entire case or project, regardless of how much time the attorneys and paralegal need to work. Fixed fees are paid at the start of a case and are usually not refundable even if the case turns out not to take much time. Summary—Clients who pay fixed fees make trust deposits to pay costs. Clients who pay hourly fees make trust account deposits to pay both fees and costs.
