You're paying by the hour.
Make sure the hours are real.

Divorce, estate, personal injury, a business dispute you got dragged into — if an attorney is billing you by the hour, Trim the Fee gives you a fair, independent read on whether the bill is reasonable.

Trim the Fees — $199

The matters we see most often

Family

Divorce and custody. Emotional cases, long timelines, and invoices that quietly balloon with "conferences" and "review of correspondence" entries.

Estate

Probate and estate administration. Executors and beneficiaries often pay from the estate itself — which makes it doubly important that every hour is legitimate.

Personal

Personal injury and hourly defense. Not every PI matter is contingency. Hourly defense and niche PI work can leave clients staring at invoices they don't understand.

Most people never push back. You can.

You have the right to receive a bill you can understand, with entries that are reasonable for the work performed. Asking for a reduction — politely and specifically — is routine in the profession. Most clients just don't know that.
