Please contact us at (310) 693-4089 for your free Case Evaluation where our team will learn more about your case. If you qualify, we’ll schedule your free Attorney Consultation. During this initial consultation, we will discuss your case with you, develop an initial strategy, and discuss the applicable retainer cost.  If the Provinziano Legal Team believes they can provide an effective legal solution to your matter and you wish to move forward, you will pay an advanced fee and sign a retainer agreement to begin services.

An advanced fee is a fee required when hiring the Provinziano Legal Team. It is a fee to be paid in advance of the work to be completed. It is much like paying a writer in advance, then he writes a book. The advanced fee is an estimate of the hourly work to be performed on the case and it is necessary to ensure that the work performed will be paid for by the client.

In most family law cases, billing is done on an hourly basis by the Provinziano Legal Team. Therefore, each team member has an hourly rate related to their work. All work performed on the case is accounted for based on the time worked. If the work exceeds the amount of the advanced fee, additional amounts may be due to complete the matter. If the work is under the amount of the advanced fee, any overage will be refunded to the client.

The Provinziano Legal Team is fair and ethical in the fees charged and its billing practices. If a client has a question regarding a bill, they can easily speak to the team member responsible, including Mr. Provinziano.

Every client is hoping for a successful outcome when they hire the Provinziano Legal Team and we strive to exceed expectations each and every time.

In some limited circumstances, work can be performed on a flat fee basis for family law matters. If applicable, this option will be discussed in the initial consultation. However, such cases are infrequent as family law disputes are often complex in nature.

We accept most forms of payment, including cash, check, credit and debit cards. We currently accept American Express, Mastercard, Visa, and Discover cards.

A retainer agreement is an agreement between the law firm and the client which specifies the work performed, the attorney’s duties to the client, the client’s duties to the attorney, the amount of the advanced fee, the method in which work performed for the client is billed and accounted for, and other commercially reasonable terms. Mr. Provinziano typically reviews each retainer agreement with each prospective client and is always available to answer any questions.
