when it comes to time in court…THERE’S NO SUCH THING AS A FREE LUNCH!

More on..... What does it cost to " Talk the talk…with your lawyer " ?

 

It is a good idea to find out from your lawyer how he charges while in court. Does he charge for waiting time, does he charge for his time at lunch or at court “breaks” if you are in court all day? How does he charge for court time if he has multiple hearings at the same time?

TIP:
If you have to pay for the lunch hour, eat with you lawyer and ask him to
discuss the court proceedings, the direction of your case and the questions you
have saved for the “lunch hour”.
