What happens at your initial office conference?

At our initial office conference for successions, you will be asked general information regarding the death, relatives, existence of a will, assets and debts. A more detailed succession questionnaire will be given to you to fill out if you wish to retain our office. At our initial office conference for wills, you will be asked general information about assets, debts, descendants, ascendants and personal preferences regarding the distribution and administration of your estate. An attorney will discuss and make recommendations regarding your case.

Fees:

If you decide to retain our firm and our firm accepts your case, a written contract shall be executed. If an issue is uncontested and non-problematic, normally a flat fee will be charged in advance of any work. If a matter is contested or problematic, a retainer will be charged in advance of any work. The attorney will then bill you on an hourly basis from said retainer. Estimated court costs will be required to be paid in advance as well.
