TIPS FOR SAVING ON LEGAL COSTS

These helpful hints can help you keep legal costs down. Prior to our meeting, write out a chronology of events and assemble your papers, documents and e-mails in order. Write down the names and addresses of all relevant parties. Whenever possible, try sending us an e-mail instead of calling. Usually, sending an e-mail is an efficient form of communication and does create a written record of your message. Ask what you can do to help your case.
