Traditional Per hour billing by Most Florida Family Law Firms and Divorce Lawyers

The most common billing method in Florida family law cases is the hourly method. The scenario starts with an up-front retainer which the divorce attorney will bill against at their hourly rate (often between $250 and $550 per hour). Once the retainer amount is expended, the law firm will typically ask for a new retainer to bill against. they will simply send you monthly invoices for the remainder of the case. Here are a few issues with this type of billing:

• Hourly billing does not incentivize efficiency and the biller earns more the longer the case drags on.
• The customer has no way to know what their legal fees will be. Receiving the monthly bill every month can become a scary occasion since there is no way to tell how much time the attorney spent that month. This undetermined billing system does not allow clients to budget for the cost of their case or to have the peace of mind that they can afford their lawyer throughout the entirety of the case.
• Hourly billing creates a disincentive to speaking with your lawyer so facts can be missed, and the lawyer may not have the whole story which can limit the lawyer’s ability to properly advise you.
• Hourly rates can increase over time which creates even more uncertainty around the total cost of the litigation.
• The higher the conflict, the higher the bill so hourly billing can reward the biller to increase the conflict of the case or not prioritize keeping conflict low.
