Over Billing

Orange County Attorney Malpractice

 

Sometimes, clients are happy with the quality of an attorney's services but outraged by the amount of the attorney's bills.  Fee disputes can arise through misunderstandings or miscommunications.  In such circumstances, honorable lawyers and reasonable clients usually can work out their disputes without assistance.  However, where a fee dispute is the result of bill padding or task padding, a client needs help to ensure he or she pays only a fair bill.

As experienced Orange County legal malpractice lawyers knowledgeable in a wide array of matters, Klein & Wilson knows the difference between a reasonable bill and one that is inflated.  Klein & Wilson's legal team uses state of the art analysis and almost a half century of combined experience to evaluate legal fees and determine whether a bill is reasonable or not.

Fee disputes can occur in a variety of ways:

  • Bill Padding by charging more hours than actually spent on a project.
  • Task Padding by performing tasks that were unnecessary.
  • Over Staffing a case with too many timekeepers.
  • Cost Markups on items that should be billed at cost.
