[quote=Anonymous]I was an associate at a firm and the owner entered a contract for prepaid legal services with some national firm. It was awful. The clients paid a crazy amount of money to this nationally known firm when they could have hired our firm directly for about a quarter of the price. The firm was paid some pittance of what the client paid and, as an associate with no hope of ever making partner, I saw nothing in my compensation package change for this extra work. And the clients thought they owned us because of how much money they paid. It was awful. I would never ever ever ever use prepaid legal services for anything other than maybe generic document preparation, like a power of attorney document or maybe closing on a real estate purchase.
