The cost for a transactional matter depends upon the type of transaction. For estate planning and some real estate transactions, we can quote a flat fee that is based upon the services desired. In addition, certain construction law transactions are payable on a flat fee. For these types of transactions, there is no charge for an initial consultation. After we have reviewed the matter with you during our meeting we can quote you a figure for the project. The quote does not normally include costs that are incurred on your behalf by us. Typical costs include filing fees, recording fees, photocopies and postage.
Some transactions do not lend themselves to a flat fee. In those cases, our normal hourly rates apply, depending on the category of services.
