Most Houston lawyers charge from $250 to over $2,000 to write a will. The amount you’re charged will largely depend on the lawyer’s experience and the complexity of the job.

What are the different powers of attorney in Texas?

A power of attorney is legal documentation that gives someone else the legal right to make decisions on your behalf about your finances or medical care. While the person does not have to be a legal professional, they should be someone you trust. In Texas, there are five different types of powers of attorney, including general, limited, durable, springing, and medical. A general power of attorney is the most popular, as this authorizes an agent to handle a wide range of decisions for you. Note that this ends if you become physically or mentally incapacitated. Other powers of attorney—durable, springing, and medical—give the agent authority to act in that case. To find a lawyer in Houston, TX who can help you with estate planning, use UpCounsel.

What is a retainer fee for a lawyer?

A retainer fee is an upfront fee that many Houston attorneys and lawyers charge so their clients can secure services with them. These fees help lawyers get paid even if their client changes their mind and the lawyer has to drop the case mid-way through. Retainer fees are typically non-refundable, but check with your local Houston, TX law firm before making any payments to avoid future misunderstandings.

Recovery of Unpaid Invoices under MSA – California Jurisdiction

Matthew Riordan

"Working with Matthew has been an outstanding experience from start to finish. I came to him with a difficult payment dispute involving a large vendor, and he navigated the situation with absolute professionalism, precision, and persistence. From day one, he quickly understood the contract, the dispute, and the urgency of the matter. His communication was clear, timely, and always proactive — I never had to wonder what was happening or what the next step would be. He drafted a detailed demand letter, handled all attorney-to-attorney communication, and strategically managed the entire negotiation process. Thanks to Matthew’s persistent follow-up and well-crafted legal arguments, we were able to recover 100% of the amount owed without needing to go through arbitration. This saved my company an enormous amount of time, money, and stress. His efforts directly made this outcome possible. Beyond the legal work, Matthew is genuinely professional, honest, and client-focused. He took the time to understand my situation, including personal circumstances, and always acted with integrity. I’m truly grateful for his dedication. I highly recommend Matthew to anyone dealing with contract disputes, unpaid invoices, or arbitration-related issues. He exceeded every expectation, and my company will absolutely continue to rely on him as our trusted legal partner. Thank you, Matthew — you’ve been incredible to work with."
