Is your attorney solving your problem… or billing your time?
When most people hire an attorney, they assume everyone involved is working toward one goal: resolving the case as efficiently as possible.
But what if the incentives don’t always align with yours?
In our blog, “The Path to Partner: How Billable Hours Trump Ethics in Law,” explores how the billable-hour model can create incentives that don’t always prioritize quick, cost-effective resolutions. It also explains why understanding the process before entering litigation can make a significant difference.
