(I'm not a lawyer, but I married one, and into several…) Actually, the up-front retainer is a kind of insurance policy. People in legal trouble have a tendency to disappear or go broke. Lawyers like to be paid, too. And if it takes six months for them to pay you… then they haven't been paid for that long, either. Their "only overhead is their pen and office"? Is that all that your lawyers have in their office? I doubt it. By that logic, all you have is your computer and monitor. Ask them about student loans sometime. 🙂
