Legal Services

Publishlawyer.com (the Law Office of Daniel N. Steven) offers the following services:

1. Flat-Fee Legal Services – a simple, secure way for writers, editors, and publishers to quickly obtain quality legal advice for standard issues and situations such as contract and document drafting and advice – at a predetermined, flat fee.  Publishlawyer provides online legal advice at a cost reduced from standard law firm rates of $195 an hour for an associate's time and up to $375 an hour for partner’s time. Publishlawyer is able to provide expert legal services at these affordable rates because overhead expenses are limited to the monthly charge for an Internet Service Provider and a Web page.  Further, most document drafting situations do not require face-to face meetings and can be handled via e-mail, fax, or telephone. See Flat-Fee Services. For additional information, see our Frequently Asked Questions About Legal Services.

2. Standard Legal Services – If none of these cover your situation, then you may obtain a phone or email consultation from publishing attorney Daniel N. Steven, who offers a full complement of tradtional legal services relating to publishing, business law, and estate planning. For details, see Practice.   Also see his Fee Options.

3. Business and Consulting Services – Many questions I receive from writers and publishers are not strictly legal, but general business questions, or span both the business and legal areas.  At Publishlawyer we use a lower fee schedule for business consulting then legal services.  See Business Services.

Interested? Please contact us.

NOTE: All legal advice is based on federal law and/or general legal principles common to all jurisdictions.  You will be informed in the event a specific state’s law is involved.  Daniel N. Steven may be retained to make court appearances for you only in the Maryland suburbs of Washington, D.C. or in the District of Columbia.  Outside these areas, he will accept business and personal matters that do not normally require court appearances or refer you to a local attorney (although he can be admitted to practice on a particular case in other states, the cost of time and travel usually is not cost effective for litigation.)
