In this brief instructional video, the speaker emphasizes that lawyers should charge for conducting file reviews, highlighting that these tasks are time‑intensive and legally complex. The speaker stresses that attorneys deserve compensation for their effort and then outlines that the appropriate fee varies based on the lawyer’s experience level and the size of the firm they are reviewing for.

First and number one tip on file reviews, get paid for them. I went many years without getting paid for them. You deserve to be paid for your time and legal ones, especially because they're more complex. So for sure, make sure you get paid for them. And then of course, the logical thing is, how much do I get paid? Kind of depends on where you are in your practice and the size of the firm you're analyzing, right?
