SERVICES & FEES
 
~ NEW LOWER FEES ~
Effective November 1st, 2011

Yes, you heard right! I have lowered my fees!
Not that I have diminished the quality of my services in any way.
I still feel that I have the very best legal document service in Arizona.
But I know that times are tough!
I would rather charge less to be sure your documents are correct
and your experience is as stress free as possible,
then to have you try to do it yourself
and have problems come to light later,
thus costing you even more in attorney's fee to fix the mistakes.

NOW OFFERING EASY PAYMENT PLANS
Starting at Just $100 Down for cases with no children
 $200 Down for cases with children

All Document, Court & Service Fees must be paid in full
within 30 days from the initial appointment.
Any additions, corrections or changes that may result during this time
because of any reason will require additional fees. 
Down payment must be cash or money order only.
Any court filing fees must be paid as the final payment in one lump sum 
as we cannot hold any amounts in trust for the court.

Documents will not be processed until total amount is paid in full.
*If you are low income, on government assistance
or have more time than money,
you may apply to have the court filing fees deferred.
This means that you are asking the court
to pay the filing/class fees in payments.
It does take an additional 2 -3 weeks to file your documents.
(Documents have to go to the judge first for approval.)
The court will add an "application fee" of $26 to the filing fee.
Ordered payments average $20 - $40 per month
until the court fees are paid.

Payments made by
CASH, PERSONAL CHECKS, MONEY ORDERS or CASHIER'S CHECKS
(Please make payable to: Karen Kosies)
qualify for a cash discount of $20!
