Drugs / Narcotics / Attorney Fee / Lawyer Fee / Retainer Fee / AVVO / Michael A. Haber, Esq. **ARRESTED / **305DUI

Q:  How much it cost a lawyer in a drugs case? what is the average?

A:  

Locally licensed lawyer

For questions involving state laws, lawyers who are licensed in the same state as the asker are often able to provide more relevant answers than out-of-state lawyers.

For questions involving federal laws (e.g., immigration or patents), this distinction is unimportant.

Lawyers agree
Answered . I cannot speak to anyone else’s business model but I do not quote fees based upon charges.

Every case is different, as is every Defendant. I quote fees based upon my evaluation of the facts and circumstances, the agreed litigation objective and how much time and effort I except (based upon my 22+ years of experience) to expend on a given client’s behalf. In my opinion, if anyone quotes you a fee without first discussing such matters with you then you should run, not walk away.

That said, you should find yourself an experienced J-ville area criminal defense lawyer, make and appointment, show up on time and engage in a face to face conversation about you and your case. Although I practice primarily in Miami-Dade County you are welcome to contact my office for a referral or two, or you can search either Avvo or the Florida Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers website by locality (please see http://www.facdl.org/ – and click on the “Find A Lawyer” tab).

I hope that this has been helpful and wish you the best of luck!
