Fee Schedule

Professionals joining the JusticeNet Program offer their services at reduced hourly rates according to JusticeNet’s “Reduced Fee Schedule”. This is a sliding scale of reduced hourly rates. Hourly rates depend on the type of professional (lawyers, mediators, paralegals), as well as on a client’s net family income and number of dependents.

The current Reduced Fee Schedule for Lawyers (hourly rates) is as follows:
