Lawyers Must Provide a Written Fee Agreement

This rule aims to prevent any discrepancies or confusion that may arise when the client receives a bill for legal services. Unfortunately, not every lawyer follows the Rules. If you have received a legal bill that far exceeds your understanding of the fee agreement— or if your attorney never even bothered to provide you with a written fee agreement— you may have rights under the rules. You certainly could file a grievance. If this sounds familiar, contact our office so that we can discuss your options.
