Remember “No one pays retail any more, why should you?
“$200/hour is on the low end of attorneys’ hourly billable retail. BUT an assured $200/hour beats all hell out of not getting paid for hundreds of $400/hour clients. Like medical bills with insurance companies, most attorneys don’t get paid retail.
True...most attorneys aren’t paid retail.
“Like medical bills with insurance companies, most attorneys don’t get paid retail.”
Apples and oranges...
You’re speaking of privately employed attorneys.
When the federal govenment contracts an attorney, you can bet your life they will be overpaid.
