Retainer
- In the case of extended legal care, plan attorneys may ask members for a retainer. Any retainer sought, will be computed by multiplying the number of hours a plan attorney believes a case will take, by the appropriate discounted hourly plan rate. For instance; 10 hours x $125.00 = a retainer of $1,250.00.
