1: Lawyers and paralegals are invoiced for fees once a year. The fee amount depends on the lawyer's or paralegal’s status and associated category at the time of billing. Status generally refers to the circumstances of the professional’s work (sole practitioner, employed in education/government/business sector, retired). Should a professional’s status change during the year, the fee category will be adjusted and a refund granted, if applicable. Find out more information about status, and the percentage fee breakdown.
