A $2500 retainer is required for all new cases. New cases are billed a one-time initiation fee of $500.00 for file preparation, which includes scheduling, file management and filing/responding to record requests. Aquatic Navigation, Inc. submits invoices each month to reflect work completed and payment is due upon receipt. Credit card authorization forms available upon request. File materials such as photographs, downloads, etc. are not releasable until the invoices have been submitted and payment received. Past due balances will incur a 1.5% monthly fee. Outstanding balances may result in the file being placed on hold. The retaining attorney is responsible for payment to Aquatic Navigation, Inc., not the attorney’s client.  Mediations, hearings and depositions require a minimum four (4) hour appearance fee as portions of the day have been blocked to accommodate for our appearance. When opposing counsel requests to take our deposition, it will be the responsibility of opposing counsel to pay the appearance fees, in addition to any time that exceeds the four (4) hour minimum. In the event that opposing counsel fails to pay submitted invoices in a timely manner, the retaining attorney will be responsible for the outstanding fees. Aquatic Navigation, Inc. reserves the right to request appearance fees prior to the seating of the deposition. These fees must be received five business days before the seating of the deposition and if fees are not received, Aquatic Navigation, Inc. reserves the right to reschedule the deposition appearance until payment is received. If travel is required for the deposition, opposing counsel will be responsible for all additional expenses unless prior agreements have been made. Depositions, hearings, and trials will not be scheduled on any files which are past due. During trial appearances, the day rate will be incorporated since the day will be blocked off of our calendar to eliminate scheduling conflicts. The mere sharing of information with Aquatic Navigation, Inc.  by a potential client shall not obligate Aquatic Navigation, Inc. to potential client or prevent Aquatic Navigation, Inc.  from contracting with other parties to the matter in the event that potential client elects not to retain Aquatic Navigation, Inc., including a signed agreement and retainer.
