Attorney’s Fees and Costs

You Have Options

Family law litigation is complex, and not having an attorney can have negative life-altering consequences. Family law litigation can also be costly, but at Law Office of Channe G. Coles, you have options. We provide compassionate full-service representation with a retainer billed at an hourly rate. In some circumstances, you might qualify to file a request with the court that the other party pay a portion of your attorney’s fees and costs.

 

Affordable Rates for Full-Service Representation

Law Office of Channe G. Coles requires a much more affordable retainer to begin services, and more reasonable hourly rates than other local firms. By offering affordable services, more people in our community are able to afford the legal representation they need and deserve.

Need-Based Attorney's Fees Requests

Whether you’re going through a divorce, separation, or a child custody battle, you may be able to ask for an attorney’s fee contribution from your spouse or co-parent because California Law requires that parties have equal right and access to representation during a family law proceeding.

At Law Office of Channe G. Coles, we are experienced in navigating the legal and factual hurdles of requesting and obtaining attorney fee awards, especially those based on an inability to afford the cost when the other party has access to funds. We work diligently with each client to determine their particular needs and the existence of community assets or funds available for contributions towards attorney fees, even if such assets are in the control of the opposing party. The specifics of your case will determine whether or not you can make such a request. Before trying to litigate matters on your own, contact us to schedule your free consultation to determine if you qualify for a need-based attorney’s fees request.
