Litigating Complex Commercial Cases on a Flat Fee Basis

[@davidgale2372]

Great work. Most of my cases inc litigation are fixed fee. How do you handle litigation - do you break it into a flat fee per stage as each stage comes? Or do you map out the fee and progress payments for the whole thing from the start?

I am a CPA who utilizes fixed fees for the majority of my service offerings. How would you determine a fixed fee for an engagement which you are familiar with the subject area but the variables involved are unpredictable and the timeline to resolution undetermined? Do you use a retainer method? Do you fall back to a billable rate?

You gotta get involved in suing lawyers and litigants that lie in family court.

@@RobertTanguay I would if it was economically viable. I know how messed up that arena is. But I’m not the solution to all the world’s problems. I can’t do it all.
