Business - TestimonialsEvery day, businesses everywhere fall victim to gouging by law firms.  It’s built into the law firm model.  Lawyer compensation and advancement are based on “billable hours,” creating a powerful incentive to churn client matters.  Timesheet padding is rampant.

Many businesses grudgingly accept this, believing they have nowhere else to go for top-quality legal services.  Others are unaware of the abusive practices that pervade the law firm culture.

When you become a client of Wentzel Law, your business will never be cheated or gouged on attorney fees again.
