Unlike traditional law firms that require a large lump sum of money up front (aka a retainer), DIY Family Law does not demand a retainer to speak with an attorney. Retainers in family law cases can cost litigants anywhere from $2,500-$10,000, from the start. That retainer is not guaranteed to get you through your legal case or through any specific portion of your case, it is simply what’s required to get you started. Save your money, educate and empower yourself to be a self-represented litigant. Pay as you go for exactly what you need, one hour at a time! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61662e16dcb82d77312d0cd5/aeb601a8-81f7-4ce0-9f7b-b066cda215b0/time-and-money-business-concept-sandglass-and-mon-2021-11-01-20-03-15-utc.jpg How DIY works - Pay by the hour! Everything at DIY Family Law is based on the amount of time spent working on your matter. An hour consulting session with Norah will cost the same as watching a one-hour educational video. Make your money go further when you pay by the hour for what you individually want help with. https://www.diyfamily.law/services daily 0.75 2022-05-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61662e16dcb82d77312d0cd5/3c71d379-06bd-40fa-a85b-17281d020603/happy-young-woman-on-the-video-call-from-laptop-2021-09-06-17-04-31-utc.jpg Consultation - Advice when you need it Ever waited in line at Self-Help for hours to have the staff tell you that they cannot answer your questions because it is considered “legal advice”?
