Your initial consultation with our firm, either by telephone conference or in person, is free.

In most cases we will ask you for an initial retainer (deposit) when you hire us. We will discuss the initial retainer with you during our first meeting. Factors that affect the amount we request for fees are the complexity of the case and the amount of Crown disclosure (evidence) we expect to receive. For the most part, this relates to the type of charges.

If you desire, we will provide you with a fee quote to take the case to trial once we have received all of your disclosure. At that time, we are in a position to provide an accurate estimate of what is involved in your case.

We understand that you probably did not budget for legal fees. For that reason, we will assist you with a payment plan to ensure that your fees are paid prior to trial.
