As noted on other pages of this website, this firm does not charge a
consultation fee for an initial telephone discussion to determine if this firm's
services are appropriate for the particular case. Andrew Wiggin conducts his
business in this way as a matter of integrity. If a preliminary discussion of the
potential case reveals that success is categorically impossible, Andrew Wiggin
chooses to not charge for such a determination.
Beyond that preliminary determination, Andrew Wiggin would need to be
retained for representation of the client.
Legal representation in all cases is priced based on a flat fee for the attorney
fee. The amount of the flat fee varies greatly, and is based upon the
anticipated amount of work likely required for completion of the particular
post-trial case. The amount quoted for the flat fee must be received by the
firm, in full, prior to beginning the agreed-upon work. If additional fees are
anticipated (such as printing costs over $100), an estimate of that amount must
also be received by the firm, to hold in trust until that expense is incurred. This
firm does not agree to legal representation on a billing or promise-to-pay basis.
Some types of cases have distinct portions of legal representation. In those
types of cases, the quoted flat fee will be noted in writing as being for a
particular portion of legal representation. For example, Andrew Wiggin usually
handles habeas corpus cases in two parts, with a separate fee for each. The
first part is called the "Assessment Fee," in which the trial court record, the
client's off-the-record recollections and other factors are considered in order to
determine what habeas corpus issues exist and have the strongest hopes of
success. The second part is essentially everything from drafting the initial
Petition For Writ of Habeas Corpus to that court's final order.
Post-trial matters which reach the point of the possibility and need of being
appealed, always require an additional flat fee for legal representation on that
appeal.
Motions to Reconsider and Petitions for Rehearing are considered additional
representation, and thus require an additional flat fee to be paid to the firm.
A personal trait of Andrew Wiggin is his tenacity in litigation. This works to
the advantage of clients, because some cases are only won by extra effort and
persistence.
