No insurance? Continuing legal ed requirements? Student loan payments?
That's at the big firms where associates have minimum annual billing quotas. I don't think you'll ever find a client of Steve's or mine that has been billed for even all of the actual time spent on their work. |
Easy Tiger! I was defending you guys! The last bit was a joke! I consulted with you before (for free I might add), but as far as Steve goes, you're right, he does NOT charge the time he spends.
By the way John, you're the "seller's" rep and escrow agent on one of the deals Stevan is handling for me!
