Struggling South Florida Divorce Lawyers Offer Discounts, Accept Credit Cards came to me earlier this week from The ABA Journal. I cannot remember when I did not take payments - or of any lawyers in my area who did not do likewise. I have been taking credit/debit cards since last year. (Yes, there are some who will not or do not take credit cards but I put that down to the cost to the lawyer of providing this service).
Life differs greatly between south Florida and central Indiana:
The story says lawyers are trying to lure clients with these options:
• Pacheco Perez Ortiz in Miami charges sliding-scale fees, and offers a payment plan: pay half now, and pay half later.
• Aventura attorney Charlotte Karlan offers 20 percent discounts for the military, and case-by-case discounts for others. “This is the worst I've ever seen business,'' she says. She has practiced for 25 years.
I am considering changing my published fees to make my positions on
divorce and
child support/visitation fees. Especially since I have begun to offer
unbundled fees.
