Understand the fee. Know the next step.
Discuss your case, your priorities and your budget with Daniel D. Nawara before deciding how to proceed.
Flat fees explained before you hire
The Law Offices of Daniel D. Nawara, P.A. offers free consultations, flat-fee representation and payment plans for criminal and DUI matters. Your quote depends on the charge, the facts, the amount of evidence and the work included in the engagement.
Before deciding, ask for the total fee and a written explanation of the scope. Discuss court appearances, evidence review, motions, negotiations and trial, as well as any separate administrative license proceeding or other related matter.
Payment plans that you can discuss
Tell the firm what down payment and monthly payments you can manage. Available arrangements depend on the case and the agreed terms. The written agreement should identify the down payment, installment amounts and due dates.
Legal fees may be separate from court costs, fines, expert fees, transcripts, service fees, treatment or testing costs, DUI school and license-related charges. Ask which expenses are included and which are your responsibility.
What affects your quote?
The charge, prior history, number of related matters, evidence, investigation and anticipated court work can affect the proposed fee. A misdemeanor, felony, probation violation, juvenile matter or DUI may require a different scope of representation.

A consultation or payment discussion does not itself establish representation or extend a deadline. Representation begins when the firm accepts the engagement under the agreed terms. No result is guaranteed.
