Credit: 3.0 Ethics Credit Hours
Description: Attend this class to receive practical advice about developing fee agreements in the District of Columbia and the ethical issues involved. Using sample agreements, our faculty experts will guide you through the requirements of a written agreement, including the scope of the agreement; fee structure (hourly, fixed, contingency, and others); handling of expenses; and more. The class will show you how to deal with client files and property in your fee agreements; how to address fees to be charged for the services of associates and legal staff; and other important issues such as termination, withdrawal, and fee dispute arbitration. Course materials include a broad range of sample fee agreements, including agreements by solo practitioners handling traffic infractions or uncontested divorces as well as agreements by large firms handling complex litigation. You also will learn about the implications of In re Mance on flat fees and nonrefundable fees.
