We believe in our motto, "Problem Solved.™"

At ScheweLaw, LLC, we are aware that people typically seek out the help of a lawyer because they got one or more legal problems that they don't have the power to resolve themselves. We understand the sensitive nature of the attorney-client relationship, and wish to lessen the stress normally associated with finding legal solutions in two, distinguishable ways:

(i) by creating an environment of open communication and active participation between attorney and client, and

(ii) by creating upfront, honest, realistic and flexible fee schedules to cut the added stress that is usually associated with the irregular billable hours model of bigger, more impersonal law firms

One of the biggest reasons for client discontentment with their lawyers is the impersonal concern some law firms can exude. However, present technologies such as instant messaging, electronic mail, social media, "smart phones," "virtual offices," and interactive case management software have assisted to connect the gap between attorney and client. By efficaciously wielding these tools, ScheweLaw, LLC hopes to break down those barriers, and promote an accessible and supportive relationship with each one of its treasured clients.

A second major area of concern for clients is the ever rising and unpredictable costs some law firms charge in connection with legal services, especially litigation. At ScheweLaw, LLC, we offer our clients various payment methods, payment plans, and fee agreements to relieve the stress of our already fair fees. We believe that you, the customer, ought to have available an effective and upfront "flat-fee" system to encourage our staff to work expeditiously. Moreover, this assures you that the fee paid will cover just the work actually done, and deflects any surprises when the final bill comes.
