Straightforward Pricing for Business Disputes
If you’ve ever hired a lawyer and had no idea what the bill would look like until it arrived, you know why we do things differently here.
At Ansari Business Litigation, we are transparent about our fees at the very beginning— before you’ve committed to anything. Every business dispute is different, so we don’t force every matter into the same billing model. Depending on the complexity, timeline, and what makes sense for your business, we work with clients through hourly, flat fee, retainer, contingency, and hybrid arrangements.
Our hourly rate runs $300–$500/hour, depending on the matter. But for many clients, a flat fee or hybrid structure is a better fit — and we’ll tell you honestly which one applies to your situation.
One more thing worth knowing: when you hire us, you work directly with Humza Ansari. Not a junior associate. Not a rotating team. If that kind of accountability matters to you, we should talk.
Schedule a free 30-minute strategy call. No pressure, no commitment — just a real conversation about what you’re dealing with and what it would take to resolve it.
Our Pricing Options
Hourly Billing
This structure gives your business flexibility in complex matters that require frequent litigation management, court appearances, negotiations, and strategic adjustments.
Flat-Fee Service
This structure provides certainty of cost to your business upfront and is a popular choice for businesses who have clearly defined needs with little to no variables. Think business contracts or outsourced legal research and writing memorandums.
Contingency Based Structures.
This structure gives your business access to litigation services for no up-front costs. We don’t get paid unless you get paid, full stop.
Retainer Agreements
This structure provides priority services to clients facing emergencies. Please schedule a consultation for pricing information.
Hybrid Structures
Every business is different and each situation is unique. We are committed to providing a hybrid fee structure for businesses where it is needed.
What Affects Litigation Pricing?
The cost of litigation depends on several factors, including:
- Complexity of the legal issues
- Amount in controversy
- Number of parties involved
- Whether the matter is in state or federal court
- Urgency of filings or hearings
- Discovery volume and document review
- Motion practice
- Trial preparation needs
- Appeal potential
A straightforward matter may require limited early-stage work, while a contested civil litigation case can involve multiple phases over a longer period.
