Hi Chapstick
It would be really hard to say what the average cost is. Despite the "average" hourly rate around $200+< per hour – some solicitors can be more draconian in posting their timesheet than others. Some solicitors prepare to strike a fixed sum with you.
A junior solicitor has a lower rate. A senior solicitor has a higher rate. A not very smart solicitor might consider him/herself senior, but only in age, not in knowledge. (And there are a lot of them…)
I am not a solicitor – I am an accountant. I sometimes posted all of my excess crappy unproductive hours to clients that I don’t like. Of course always with justification. Nice clients that ring me or email me for one question every odd hours… I just don’t charge them. Instead charge all of those times to those abusive clients. The key is – always with justification.
If you are running a business, it is a good idea to develop a relationship with a one good trustworthy solicitor (who is preferably also knowledgable, not just pretend to be smart)
That aside….
