Revised Fee Schedule for Consultations
by Bryan W. Wolford on 09/21/12
For any Divorce, Custody, Modification, or Child Support case, the initial consultation fee is $50.00. If the prospective client and The Law Offices of Bryan W. Wolford enter into a legal services agreement following the consultation, then the consultation fee will be applied toward the balance of the contract fee.
For any other case or matter, the initial consultation fee is $25.00. If the prospective client and The Law Offices of Bryan W. Wolford enter into a legal services agreement following the consultation, then the consultation fee will be applied toward the balance of the contract fee.
We strive to provide the highest quality legal services for our clients at a fair and competitive rate. During consultations, an attorney and a prospective client exchange confidential information regarding the client's legal issues. Following the consultation, and even if the prospective client does not hire the attorney, the attorney must keep the prospective client's information confidential. In addition, the attorney may not represent the opposing party of the prospective client in any litigation relating to the confidential information disclosed to the attorney. Therefore, in order to try to assist as many prospective clients as possible while protecting our work product and business expectation, The Law Offices of Bryan W. Wolford has set the above-listed consultation fees.
Should you wish to schedule a personal and confidential consultation with attorney Bryan W. Wolford, please call (573) 796-2093 or email at info@midmolawyer.com.

Office Relocation Complete
by Bryan W. Wolford on 07/06/11
The Law Offices of Bryan W. Wolford
604 South Thomas Street
California, Missouri 65018
The new location is one-half block south of Business 50 on Thomas Street. Thomas Street is the road that runs between Cal's Thriftway and Mr. G's Liquor. We are across the street from K.A. Dutcher's and behind the California Motel.
Our new office location has helped us to reduce our overhead costs and operating expenses. These lower costs have allowed us to maintain our current price structure to continue to provide high quality legal services to our clients for reasonable fees. In these tough economic times where many in the legal field are raising their client fees in the face of higher operating costs to maintain revenue, The Law Offices of Bryan W. Wolford has refused to pass the higher expenses on to our clients.
I recently had a conversation with an attorney who was a partner at a small firm of five attorneys. He told me that the best way to make more money was to raise fees and charges to clients. I respectfully disagreed with him. I firmly believe that by providing quality legal services at a reasonable price, I will attract more clients. The absolute best practice is to have a lot of clients who pay a reasonable fee than have a few clients who pay a high or excessive fee for legal services.
At any rate, we cordially invite the public to stop by and visit the new office location. Enjoy a cup of fresh-ground coffee and we can chat about the Cardinals, history, and arrowhead hunting. Please make an appointment to discuss any legal issues. Our initial consultations with clients remain at no charge to the client.
Office Closing 01/31 - 02/02
by Bryan W. Wolford on 01/31/11
Due to the severe winter storm anticipated to hit Mid-Missouri from Monday, January 31 through Wednesday, February 2, the office will be closed on the following dates:
Monday, January 31 - The office will close early at 2:00 p.m.
Tuesday, February 1 - The office will be closed. I seriously doubt any groundhogs will be out to see or not see their shadows today.
Wednesday, February 2 - The office will be closed.
Thursday, February 3 - As of 1/31/2011, the office will be closed. If conditions improve (or if we only get a half-foot of snow), there is the possibility of a delayed opening on Thursday.
During the closures, the phones and email will remain operational. Further, the office will take appointments during the closed days for those who absolutely must meet with an attorney, although we strongly encourage everyone to stay home and ride out the storm.
Please do not hesitate to contact us at (573) 796-2093 if you have any further questions.
