Retainers and Payments

We require a retainer of 50% of the fees (+ GST/HST). This fee is non-refundable, as we immediately begin our work on the file when the retainer is received. Once the application is prepared and ready to be submitted, the client is billed for the full amount (application fees, taxes and disbursements) less the original retainer amount. Invoices must be paid within two weeks. We accept payment by cheque, cash, wire transfer, Interac email transfer and credit card (PayPal).
