I have only spoken to the lawyer for the initial consultation. I did not sign anything. She told me that she would need half down to open the case. I asked her if I could bring in what I have every week until I reach half down for her to get started and she said yes. I took in money still owing about $125 to reach the half down mark. 3 days later things had changed and we decided to wait until a better time to open the case. When I called for a refund, her paralegal told me that she would only give me a partial amount of what I had given her. Calling it a non refundable retainer. I was never told anything about a non refundable retainer. I never even signed a contract. I assumed that I would sign something whenever she opened the case. Is it ethical for her to keep $250 from a $750 deposit when there is nothing in writing stating any of that.
