"If rates become a huge issue, and I find out somebody else has the expertise, and they’re doing it at a lower rate, or they’ve come up with a different solution, then I can move my work. But in order for me to staff up and take something on in-house, I can only do if there is a consistent flow of work."

*We do not represent and have not represented Allstate.
Why do we charge lower rates than attorneys with comparable experience and credentials?
We have very little overhead. Most importantly, we work either at our home offices or at our clients' offices. At times, we've considered renting office space but none of our existing clients have expressed a desire for that and we believe reduced hourly rates more than offset the marketing value of expensive lease arrangements.
