THE BENEFITS OF USING FIXED FEES IN CERTAIN FAMILY COURT CASES

family law

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been experimenting with using fixed and flat fees in certain types of family law cases. Frankly, the response from prospective clients has been very positive. Potential clients seem to like the idea that their costs is fixed and set, and that they can plan and budget for their case.  This makes sense from their point of view.

From my side of the table, I’ve come around to the view that it is in fact possible to properly estimate the costs of basic family law cases such as a child support petition, a paternity petition, and some types of visitation matters. I can use my experience and knowledge of the Court system and procedures, and I can also use my own experience in interviewing clients during a consultation to determine what is likely to happen over the course of a case.
