A retainer fee is an upfront cost that serves as a financial commitment between a client and an attorney. This fee ensures that the lawyer will reserve time to work on the client's case. Understanding how retainer fees work is the first step in preparing for the legal journey ahead.

Typically, retainer fees may vary based on the complexity of the case and the lawyer's expertise. Our team will clarify how these fees are applied and what services they cover, ensuring that our clients are never left in the dark regarding their investments in their defense.

Lawyers often charge for their services in one of two ways: by an hourly rate or a flat fee. Each payment structure has its advantages depending on the scope and intricacies of your case. At Arnold Placek & Foerster PC, we'll walk you through which option might suit your situation best and why.

In the context of DUI cases, hourly rates mean you pay for the time an attorney spends working on your case. Flat fees, alternatively, are a one-time charge that covers all legal services. It's critical to clarify which kind of fee structure a lawyer offers before proceeding.

Beyond lawyer fees, DUI cases can incur additional costs such as court fees, fines, and payments for required services like alcohol education programs. We will provide a comprehensive list of potential expenses, so you're equipped to handle these charges head-on.

Rest assured, our team is dedicated to transparency, highlighting all additional costs that may arise. This way, there are no surprises when it comes to managing your budget during what can already be a stressful time.

It is absolutely crucial to meticulously review any legal contract before signing. Our specialists at Arnold Placek & Foerster PC are here to help parse through the jargon and ensure that every clause and term in your legal contract is fair and straightforward.
