[00:00:00]When I talk to people about this case, everybody wonders, everybody says, "How are they getting paid?"

[00:00:06]>> We took a fee, a great fee, to represent him on a murder case.

[00:00:11]Or the case when the case is over, um well, we will fulfilled our contract.

[00:00:17]This idea that we only we're not we're not insurance defense lawyers that bill by the hour. We are we take flat fees.

[00:00:25]And sometimes uh you take a case, I mean, I've had cases I took huge fees on. Um and within a month of getting hired, I figured it out, went to the prosecutor with my evidence, and they dismissed the case.

[00:00:43]So, you know, I've made money that people say that outrageous for the work he did.

[00:00:49]And then a case like this, no, we're not we're going to when I say lose money, we're not going to be compensated for our time.
