Legal Question in Business Law in New York

Anybody in this to help?

Ok I want to have my own privacy policy, terms of use and maybe a few contracts made. All of these shouldn't be too complicated, just specify what I am to do,what companies I am partnered are to do, and how money will be split.

I have been reading that most lawyers here charge around $250 each, but I believe to really do all of these would take maybe an hour at most. Is there any lawyer that would do them all for this price since it will take an hour?

You dont charge a flat rate when you know your service is going to take 500 hours so why charge a flat rate when you know it will take you an hour?

Thank You

Re: Anybody in this to help?

Because at least in our case $250 is our minimum fee. Our hourly rate is $260 per hour which is about half of what big firms in NYC will charge you. Feel free to look it up. You are paying for out time, knowledge and expertise. If you feel you can do it yourself for less, that is your right, but if you do make a mistake I guarantee it will be more costly to resolve an avoidable mistake than to avoid the mistake in the first place.

Should you like to discuss this or any other legal matter, you can call my office to schedule an appointment for a consultation or in the alternative, I can be reached for on-phone low-cost legal consultation at 1-800-275-5336 x0233699.
