At The Legal LABB, we know that not everyone can afford to pay the legal fees of a traditional law firm. The fees are based on a sliding scale, because we know that most Floridians fall into the category of people that make too much money to receive assistance from the local legal aid offices and not enough money to pay traditional legal fees and still feed their families. The chart below gives you an idea of what your hourly rate would be, with one of our Private Referral Network Attorneys. If you can find yourself on the table below, you are likely to be eligible for sliding scale legal services. In any event, you must submit a Referral Request (A $35 referral fee applies). You will immediately be provided contact information for an attorney who has agreed to accept the sliding scale fee and will provide you an initial consultation at no additional charge.
Use this chart as a guideline when estimating your fee. Based on the chart below a family of 3 that makes $30,000 per year would pay the rate of $75 per hour, since our Network Attorneys** may request a minimum 10 hour retainer for most cases, that client would pay a $750 initial retainer for services*.
