Criminal defense at the stage your case needs
A defined engagement for the current situation
The person seeking information, the person legally appointing counsel and the payer may have different roles. A friend can make an inquiry or payment, but that does not establish authority to appoint defense counsel.
A meeting, bail application, file review with opinion or a single stage may be quoted separately, subject to legal requirements.
