Paying for legal services is difficult. It isn’t an expense that most plan for in advance. You can use pre-paid legal services (although the people that call me are often unhappy with the quality of these services). There are legal aid benefits on many employment plans (I have heard complaints of these as well). There are legal services for the needy as well. Many lawyers require cash or checks, some will accept credit cards. Some offices accept payment plans as well. If you use a payment plan, keep in mind that your case could be delayed if you have not paid in full when things are ready to close. It is difficult for a lawyer to collect fees on a closed matter, so often they will delay closing until payment in full is accomplished.

In my offices, we have just set up the ability to accept most major credit cards. I hate the idea of being a part of creating debt for another person, but at least this way more people can get the help they need. If you have been looking at retaining me, but been unsure how you would pay for it, don’t hesitate to call. There may be something that can be worked out that will get you the help you need.
