I should have done more research. It's probably legal, but the billing practices of this firm border on absurd. I can envision a pep squad like internal meeting being conducted on how to inflate, puff up, and create extra billing. Like send an incomplete e-mail to cause an additional billable phone call. They have to be instructed internally how to "add" to the billing rates.
Also, mistakes on their part, then a bill to correct their mistake. Change in there internal staff, so added billing for further review, etc. I feel, by my personal standards, their billing practices are at best disingenious. They either cause, or allow items to happen to add to the billable hours, I expect a professional firm I have working on my behalf to make every effort not only represent me competently, but simultaneously do so in a professional fashion which minanmizes cost. I am not sure on the legal competance, but it was obvious their primary concern is most likely pumping up the billable hours.
