Fees & Consultation

At Martel Law Office, we provide strategic, results-driven legal solutions tailored to your unique situation. With years of experience and a dedicated legal team, we are committed to delivering exceptional legal representation to help you navigate complex legal matters with confidence.

Consultation & Case Review

Your initial consultation is a comprehensive case review designed to provide a clear legal strategy tailored to your needs. To ensure that your time with the lawyer is as productive as possible, our process begins with a structured intake, typically conducted by a knowledgeable law clerk. During this step, we gather key facts, background details, and relevant documents about your case.

This ensures that your consultation time is fully focused on legal analysis, strategy, and next steps—maximizing the value you receive.

Consultations are scheduled for up to an hour and are billed at our standard hourly rate. You will leave with practical legal insights and a clear understanding of your options.

Transparent & Professional Billing

We offer two billing structures depending on the nature and complexity of your case:

  • Fixed Fees – Available for straightforward legal matters such as Wills & Power of Attorney, providing cost certainty.
  • Hourly Billing – For complex cases, fees are based on the time required to handle your matter effectively.

Every consultation is a standalone professional service, ensuring you receive dedicated legal attention and expert advice from the outset.

Our Commitment to Value & Efficiency

✔ Clear & Itemized Billing – You will always know where your money is going with detailed invoices at every stage.
✔ Honest Case Evaluation – If we believe your chances of success are limited, we will inform you as early as possible.
✔ Client-Focused Representation – Our goal is to provide practical, results-oriented legal solutions while maintaining cost-efficiency and professionalism.

At Martel Law Office, we understand that hiring a lawyer is a significant decision. We are committed to providing exceptional legal service backed by experience, professionalism, and a dedicated legal team—ensuring that you receive the value, clarity, and results you deserve.
