I just want to know....how do lawyers go about charging people? I know that their are contingent fee, hourly fee, and retainer fee, but i'm really talking about per hour. Let's say that I'm a client and your my lawyer and you tell me that you worked on my case for 5 hours today and you charge $250/hr. how do i know that you REALLY worked on my case for 5 hours or just not lying to me to get my money?

Heheh. You dont know. Thats why you never take a lawyer on a hourly rate. Your attorney done lied to you!
Always go for a contingent rate or retainer fee. I work for the worlds biggest collection attorney and do bill collecting throughout the U.S and have over 300 lawyers working on cases in every state.
Depending on what type of attorney you want, I may be able to hook you up with a good attorney on a contingency rate. He makes money if you make money. ONLY!!!
