PRICING

At Morris Legal and Tax LLC, our clients receive great value because we provide exceptional service for reasonable costs.  Although lawyers traditionally charge by the hour for their services, we have found that most clients do not see the value in a lawyer’s time, but instead see the value in the service that is provided, whether it is the preparation of a tax return, the preparation of estate planning documents, or simply good legal advice.  For this reason, we generally charge a flat fee for our services.

Flat Rate: As discussed above, whenever possible, we will quote a flat, guaranteed fee.  Every case is unique and requires a custom solution, therefore the pricing is unique to each client, as well.  After meeting with you to determine the scope of your case, we are able to guarantee a flat fee for most services.

The prices listed below are guidelines only and are provided here to give you a general sense of what our price range is.  The amount of time and expertise that is required for each situation differs based on the client’s circumstances, the complexity of the case, and the amount of time that will be expended on the case.  Therefore, we will not give a firm price quote until we have had an initial consultation with the client to determine the scope of the work.
