Fee Schedule

Professionals joining the JusticeNet Program offer their services at reduced fees according to JusticeNet’s reduced fee schedule. JusticeNet’s “Reduced Fee Schedule” is a sliding scale of reduced fees. Hourly fees depend on 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 is as follows:

Lawyers Reduced Fee Schedule
