How can I save money when dealing with my attorney?

In most cases, your attorney’s fees are the direct result of the time he/she spends on your case. Thus, saving your attorney time should save you money. Here are some tips:

• Consolidate multiple questions into a single communication – email or phone call – as opposed to several individual emails or calls.

• Prepare for all meetings with your attorney and come with multiple copies of all requested information. Provide your attorney with neat and organized responses to his/her requests.

• Provide your attorney with written summaries of events and lists of important information such as account numbers and contact information of key figures.

• Where possible, utilize your attorney’s legal assistant and paralegal.
