Ask a Lawyer is a public chat forum, where you can ask lawyers for very general information. Because it is public, your questions, comments, and responses are not confidential. Please contact a lawyer in our Directory directly if you need a private opinion about your specific circumstances.
Can a lawyer bill you without informing you? The law firm website indicate free consult and the lawyer who returned my call provided some advice over the phone a few times but never informed me how the legal fees were going to be charged. We never have a verbal or written agreement and the lawyer did not represent me. The advice provided was no different than what I have been informed from other lawyers who provided me with free consult. The next thing you know, the lawyer send me a bill. Is this legal?
