Walters Philosophy
Every case is based on the individual client. No attorney can represent someone without knowing that person’s life and goals. For that reason, when I meet you, I don’t begin by talking about the facts of your case. I begin by asking about the facts of your life. Only when I know who you are can I know how your case may affect you.
Pricing
I will never charge you for an initial conversation about your case. You have a right to an understanding of your case and what I can do for you before you are required to pay anything.
After a meeting where we get to know each other and gain an understanding of your case, I will quote you a one-time flat fee that would cover the entire case. That fee varies depending on the complexity of your case, but it is always reasonable. If you are not interested in engaging my services, you do not owe me a dime.
