LEGAL SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES FAQ
When YOU need a lawyer, YOU deserve to know how much it will cost before the work begins. This is called upfront pricing, and it has many benefits for YOU:
- No surprises: YOU know exactly how much YOU’ll pay from the start.
- Peace of mind: YOU won’t worry about unexpected bills while YOUR lawyer is working on YOUR case.
- Better budgeting: YOU can plan YOUR finances more easily because YOU know the cost in advance.
- Easier decision-making: YOU can decide if the legal help is worth the cost before saying yes.
- Fairness: YOU pay for the service, not for how long it takes.
- Trust: When lawyers are open about their prices, it helps YOU trust them more.
- Control: YOU have more control over YOUR legal expenses.
- Focus on results: YOUR lawyer can focus on solving YOUR problem, not on billing hours.
- No pressure: YOU won’t feel rushed or pressured during meetings with YOUR lawyer.
- Value for money: YOU can compare prices and services to get the best value for YOUR needs.
Remember, it’s okay to ask a lawyer, “How much will this cost?” before YOU agree to hire them. YOU have the right to know, and good lawyers will be happy to tell YOU.
Upfront pricing helps make legal services clearer and less stressful for YOU. It puts YOU in control and helps YOU get the legal help YOU need without worrying about the cost. That’s what YOU deserve when YOU need a lawyer’s help!
* At this time Litigation Matters are not included in our Subscription and Flat Fee Services. They are still billed on an hourly rate. In the event that you are a subscriber and are in need of litigation services, we will provide them at a discount equivalent to that offered to flat fee services for your specific subscription tier.
Matthew Mazur PA can handle many of your legal issues but may occasionally it is in Your interest for us to refer you to an attorney outside of our firm to better address your needs. Matthew Mazur PA does not currently represent clients in litigation under its Subscription Plans or Flat Fee Services. Matthew Mazur PA does not provide services in the following practice areas: criminal, securities, tax, privacy, and intellectual property. In the event that outside counsel is required to deal with a specific legal issue or we believe you would better be served by another attorney handling a situation for you, we will help you locate and retain that attorney and monitor that attorney’s services for you.
At this time Litigation matters are not included in our subscription and flat fee services. They are still billed on an hourly basis, but we are working on a framework for providing litigation representation on a subscription/flat fee hybrid offering. We are hoping to have that framework ready for beta testing with clients towards the end of 2024.
Before Matthew Mazur PA can represent you, we need to run a conflicts check. This is an ethical requirement on our part to ensure that our current and past clients do not have any conflicts with you and your legal needs.

An SOS Call/Meeting is an unscheduled “emergency” “SOS” call to your legal team. To be considered an SOS worthy call, the following must apply: You are injured, A Family member is injured, You have been arrested. A family member has been arrested. Your business is being raided by the authorities. Your bank accounts have been frozen. Your business had been damaged or vandalized. Your business has been robbed. Someone is going to die or have severe physical harm befall them if you don’t speak to your attorney. If the basis for your call doesn’t fall under one of these exemplars, it is not an emergency and should be handled through a Scheduled Call, Email or VIP Client Portal Messaging.
