We do not have an actual hourly rate set for my services. I am the only one who functions as a lawyer in the office. It would probably work out to no more than $60 or $70 per hour in the average case which is probably what would be charged out by an articling student at a local firm. It is considerably less than the private sector for the same services. When we have a situation in which the estate does have sufficient funds and there are legal problems, then I can retain and will retain a private lawyer to act on behalf of the estate, and who will be paid from the estate or the funds received as a result of the litigation. He will not be paid by the government in those cases.
