Hello Robert,
As far as salesmanship, I encourage you to take courses like Dale Carnegie
or some other course for those skills as a quick email response from members
would probably not serve you well. A business class might help too.
As a business owner, you decide many of the questions you ask and I would
refer you to the rules of professional conduct as a reference and guide
Any fee over $1000.00 must be in writing and again, the professional rules
also have sample fee agreements to give you a start.
Read LBR 2090-1.1 regarding the limited scope of appearance for chatper 7;
and the
Rights and Responsibilities agreement or RARA under LBR 3015-1.7

Dear Members:

I want to improve client relationships by improving my
salesmanship and contract formation and expectations.

Many of the questions on the listserve must arise after the
client has retained the attorney for a fixed fee and a lot of
them require extra work in researching positions, amending
schedules, doing motions.

I know a successful contractor must do a good job in estimating
the work, explaining the difficulties, but he still wants a job
rather than no job. Any suggestions?

Also, what about unforeseen or unforeseeable difficulties?
Any suggestions?

Do you use true retainers?
Do you include provisions that sever the relationship
for not cooperating? Failure to provide timely information?
Failure to pay?
Would you refund the fee under any of these conditions?

I have never heard of anyone asking the court to be relieved for non
payment
of fees or non-co-operation.

Does anyone know the average rate for C7 personal BK?

Thank you for any guidance provided.

Robert
