Why you need this Model Retainer Agreement:
Many clients don’t like to pay their legal bills and without having measures in place to ensure payments, law firms can run into huge headaches. One best practice is to lay out your billing arrangements and hourly fees charged by partners, associates, and paralegals in your retainer agreement.
How this Model Retainer Agreement helps you:
Use this Model Retainer Agreement to clearly show your clients what services they are being billed for. The more specific you are, the fewer questions you will receive.
How to use this Model Retainer Agreement:
No two practices are the same, so modify this Model Retainer Agreement based on your circumstances. Do NOT have your client sign the Retainer Agreement on the first visit. Instead, have him or her take the agreement home to carefully read before returning the signed form to your office.
