VIRTUAL CONSULTATION FAQ

If your question can be answered in just a few sentences, for example, "are you available for an appointment this Saturday?" or "how much is the filing fee to register the copyright in a novel?", please just email us, and we will answer for free. However, if we believe that you are in a more complex situation, we may recommend you to schedule a virtual consultation.

The first appointment on your legal matter will always be hosted by a licensed attorney. If we take you case, appointments thereafter may be held by an attorney or a paralegal, depending on the subject matters of the meetings. We always let you know in advance who you will meet with. 

Payment must be received by He's Law Office, PLLC prior to the starting time of your appointment. Otherwise, your appointment will be cancelled, but you will not be obliged for any penalties, and you are welcome to book again.

If we take your case, please do not make upfront payment for any appointment after the first one for your case—for cases taking no more than one month to close, you will pay everything upon receiving your final invoice for the case; for cases taking over a month to close, you will pay for what we have done each month upon receiving each monthly invoice. 

You may also request to track your accumulated expenditure on your case before an invoice becoming available.  We may be able to make reasonable estimates on your future costs, however, the actual amount due is always on your invoice only.

Please use the "MAKE PAYMENT" button on top of this website, which takes credit/debit cards. Please email us if you have to use other payment methods due to online payment issues, and we will reply to you soon. 

Your payment will be deposited to our firm's IOLTA account first and not be withdrawn or otherwise transferred until your service is completely rendered.

If you have paid for your appointment, and for whatever reasons, either you or we fail to attend the appointment, your payment will be fully refunded within 5 business days following your originally scheduled appointment. 

We wait for you for up to 10 minutes past our scheduled appointment starting time, and if you fail to show up, we will cancel your meeting and fully refund you. You may reschedule another appointment. If we successfully held a meeting, there will be no refund. 

If technological issues caused an interruption of more than 5 minutes during the appointment, whether on your side, on our side, or by force majeure, you will only be billed the actual duration of the meeting at $3.33 per minute.

If our meeting reveals that the complexity of your legal matter exceeds our firm's capabilities, we may refer you to another firm, and you are entitled to a full refund for your appointment. 

If you are not satisfied with our services during the appointment, please let us know within 5 business days following your appointment date, and we will do our best to amicably resolve this issue with you. You are advised to seek independent legal counsel.
