Please be advised that by taking advantage of the reduced fees on the initial consultations you acknowledge and agree that our law firm has not undertaken to represent you in the subject of your consultation. Our firm can undertake to represent you only when you and a representative of our firm sign a fee agreement or engagement letter and you pay any retainer that may be required in the fee agreement or the engagement letter.
Your payment of the retainer must result in actual receipt of funds. The actual receipt of funds means the receipt of actual cash or the clearing of a negotiable instrument. For example, if you elect to pay any required retainer by check, the check must clear your bank before our firm can commence any action on your behalf.

Our firm only accepts cash and checks for payment of the retainer.
