 Why
and how the Attorney’s “Retainer Agreement” protects the
consumer.
DEMAND ONE TO BE FAXED
OR E-MAILED TO YOU BEFORE AGREEING TO ANYTHING ON THE PHONE!
A
“Retainer Agreement” is the legally binding contract for
legal representation between you and your attorney (attorney
firm). It spells out what the scope of the legal representation
is, what financial responsibilities each party bears during the
representation, and provides specifics as to “actual
damages,” “civil penalty damages,” and other important
information relative to legal representation in a California
Lemon Law case/claim.
Many
consumers do not realize that, just
by a simple phone consultation with an attorney firm, they
can find themselves being “represented” by that attorney
firm without their specific understanding and/or consent, and
without a written and signed “Retainer Agreement”. Worse
yet, the “follow-up” letter by the attorney firm will then
delineate potential responsibilities for legal fees, disclosure
of potential responsibility for “expert fees,” and other
potential financial responsibilities and obligations that may have
never been discussed on
the phone. This is where the “Retainer Agreement” comes
in.
In
choosing a Lemon Law attorney firm to represent you, we strongly
suggest that you DEMAND a Retainer Agreement be sent to you via
e-mail or fax so that you have full
disclosure of what the scope of your legal
representation will be, as well as any financial
responsibilities placed on you. Our firm has sent a Retainer
Agreement to our clients for 19 years.
A
“Retainer Agreement” is a very important document that
provides specific disclosure and protections for California
consumers. We suggest: Demand
a Retainer Agreement be faxed or e-mailed to you for your review
before deciding to
hire or giving any kind
of “agreeing response” to any lemon law attorney
(attorney firm) that tells you “YOU
HAVE A CASE”, or “WE
THINK YOU HAVE A VALID LEMON LAW CLAIM” by telephone
consultation/conversation with or
without them having done a review of your repair
documentation.
After
19 years and over 7,000 successful California Lemon Law cases, all
of our clients receive Retainer Agreements. For our firm, it’s
the correct and ethical way to do business that fosters a
long-term relationship with our clients.
