Secure & Simple

How payments work at our office.

Every case begins with a free consultation. Before you commit, we explain the retainer, what it covers, and the options available so the financial side is clear from the start.

Online payments are processed through LawPay, a payment platform built specifically for law firms that keeps client funds compliant with trust-accounting rules. You can pay a retainer, an invoice, or an agreed payment-plan installment by credit card, debit card, or eCheck.

For clients who prefer to spread the cost over time, Pay Later financing through Affirm lets you pay in monthly installments — with no down payment for those who qualify — while the firm is paid in full up front so your defense can begin without delay.
