Since its inception, Foster Law Offices has devoted its practice to the representation of individuals and businesses in personal injury and civil litigation.  We are a small firm dedicated to providing large firm experience to clients facing a wide range of legal issues.

For the convenience of all clients, we offer evening and weekend telephone appointments.  In most cases, the client’s first consultation is free.  In all matters, we advise the client whether legal fees will be charged on an hourly basis, benchmark basis or as a contingency fee.  At the client’s first consultation, the cost of representation is explained in detail and the services performed are outlined in our written fee agreement.
