Independent lawyer or law firm?

質問

How much percentage of a fee reduction is it reasonable to expect from a lawyer working independently compared to a law firm hourly rate (assuming the same level of experience and competence)? And is there any disadvantage to employing an independent lawyer (compared to someone working in a firm) if I am comfortable with his or her experience and ability?

It is not so much a "reduction in fee" that you should "expect", however it is usually true that larger firms charge a higher price because they have larger overhead - their offices are obviously larger, they have a larger staff, and the like. Your most important factor to consider, however, is the expertise, experience, competence, service that you will receive. If you are satisfied/comfortable with the independent attorney, then go for it - good and comfortable relationships are difficult to find, so if you find one, keep it.
