Meet antonette M. DuPree, Esq.

---

A.D. Litigation & Estate Planning, LLC requires a retainer equal to 100% of the total service fee at the time of engagement and execution of the fee agreement. This retainer will be deposited into an IOLTA trust account and will remain there until your estate plan is completed. The retainer secures the firm’s time and services and ensures that, should you choose not to proceed with the execution of your estate plan as originanally agreed, a portion of the fee may be retained to compensate for the time and effort already expended on your behalf. Should you decide not to proceed with the execution of your completed estate plan, 75% of the total cost of the fee will be retained, and the remaining 25% returned to you. 

All attorneys are governed by ethical rules established by the applicable state bar, which require that the scope of representation be clearly defined, along with the type of fee arrangement agreed upon by the client (flat fee, contingency fee, or hourly billing) and, where applicable, the specific fee amount. Probate administration and estate planning services are offered on a flat-fee basis, while probate litigation services are billed either hourly or on a contingency-fee basis. A.D. Litigation & Estate Planning, LLC requires that a written fee agreement be executed by the client before any work is commenced on the client’s behalf.

A.D. Litigation & Estate Planning, LLC does not accept walk-in appointments. Prospective clients must complete the submission form below to schedule a free consultation. As a professional services provider, the firm undertakes significant analysis and preparation prior to meeting with each client. Accordingly, you may be required to complete detailed intake forms and gather substantial personal information in advance of your appointment. If the required paperwork is not completed as instructed, or if you arrive unprepared, you may be asked to reschedule your consultation.

For clients billed on an hourly basis, invoicing is issued monthly, either at the end of the billing month or at the beginning of the following month. Each invoice will include a detailed description of the work performed on your behalf during that period, the time spent on each task, and the amount applied to your retainer. These billing practices are required by applicable ethical rules and are not unique to A.D. Litigation & Estate Planning, LLC, but apply to all attorneys who provide services on an hourly billing basis.
