At The Darvish Firm, APC, we understand that legal services are an investment, and we strive to provide clear and transparent fee structures to help our clients make informed decisions.
1. Hourly Rates
Our standard billing rate is based on the complexity of the case and the experience level of the attorney or legal professional handling the matter. Hourly rates vary, and you will be informed of the specific rate at the time of your initial consultation.
2. Flat Fees
For certain services such as contract drafting, estate planning, and business formation, we may offer flat-rate pricing. This ensures that you have a clear understanding of the cost upfront and can make an informed decision about proceeding with your legal matters.
3. Retainers
In some cases, a retainer fee may be required to begin work on a case. The retainer is an upfront payment, which is applied to the attorney’s hourly fees or other services provided. Retainer fees are typically used for ongoing representation in litigation or complex matters. Any unused portion of the retainer will be refunded at the conclusion of the case.
4. Contingency Fees
In certain cases, such as personal injury or real estate disputes, we may work on a contingency fee basis. This means that our firm only receives a fee if you win your case or obtain a settlement. Our fee will be a percentage of the amount recovered. The specific percentage and terms will be discussed and agreed upon before any work is done.
5. Payment Plans
We offer flexible payment options for clients who need assistance in managing legal fees. Payment plans can be arranged on a case-by-case basis, and we are committed to working with clients to find a solution that fits their financial situation.
Billing Statements
You will receive regular invoices detailing the services performed and the time spent on your case. Payments are due upon receipt of the invoice, and failure to pay may result in the suspension of legal services until outstanding balances are settled.
Consultation Fees
We charge a fee for initial consultations, which will be communicated to you before scheduling the appointment. The consultation fee may be credited toward your legal fees if you choose to retain our services.
Client Communication
We are committed to providing clear communication regarding fees and billing. Should you have any questions or concerns about our fees or your invoice, please do not hesitate to contact us.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and for MAC users.
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
