Elder Law Fees

All of the following fees are starting prices, which means I may need to charge you more based on your specific situation depending on its complexity and other issues. I charge flat rate fees, which means you know how much you will pay for legal services before I begin any work. Filing fees are additional and are either noted below or I will discuss them with you before beginning any work on your legal matter. My consultations start at 30 minutes for $150 (longer paid consultations are available), and I will deduct that fee from your estate plan if you retain me after the consultation. I give discounts and provide payment plans in certain limited circumstances.
