It depends on the attorney, but the financial terms should be set out clearly and specifically in the retainer agreement. Some attorneys charge a retainer and bill by the hour for work done on your case. Others (like me) charge a fixed fee that is disclosed at the beginning of the case, so you know your best case and worst case scenario from a cost standpoint.
If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.SpartanburgLawyers.com). I wish you the best of luck.
