Court Related Fees
Clients are discouraged from having therapist subpoenaed. Even though you are responsible for the testimony fee, it does not mean that the testimony will be solely in your favor. Therapists can only testify to the facts of the case and/or provide their professional opinion.
A retainer of $1500 is due in advance. If a subpoena or notice to meet attorney(s) is received without a minimum of 48-hour notice there will be an additional $250 “express” charge. Also, if the case is reset with less than 72 business hours’ notice, then the client will be charged $500 (in addition to the retainer of $1500).
