FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Depending on the type of work, our legal fee is either hourly, contingent on the outcome of the case, or a flat fee. Typically personal injury cases are contingent on success, meaning we only get paid if you win. Real estate closing legal fees are flat fee and range from $1,200 for NJ (plus other necessary fees) to $1,800 for most NY closings (condos and Co-ops may be more) . Business transactions are hourly and our rate is $350 per hour. Estate Planning services start at a flat fee of $499 and depend on needs and complexity.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When we take on a new client we need their basic contact information including name, address, ************, email. An engagement agreement is drafted and sent to the client for review and to sign electronically. We then set the client up with access to our secure online portal to our firm where each client can view work we have done, upload documents, send messages to us or have an online chat with one of our attorneys. If necessary, we will have the client come into one of our offices to sign documents and go over their matter.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Our attorneys are licensed to offer and perform legal services in New York and New Jersey.
