Sunk Costs: The Hidden Danger of “Free” Consultations
The most important thing Flat Fee Family Law offers is the price. Other firms hide it behind vague answers and misleading “consultations.” You’ll waste time in an “initial free consultation” only to be handed a blank-check retainer agreement.
What Is the Sunk Cost Fallacy?
The sunk cost fallacy is when you keep pursuing a path—like staying with a high-cost lawyer—because you’ve already invested time or money, even though it no longer benefits you. Retainer-fee firms count on this psychological trap.
How to Avoid Sinking Money Into a Bad Legal Strategy
If you’re shopping around for lawyers, don’t be afraid to ask the real question up front: “What will it cost to handle my case from start to finish?” If they can’t answer that directly, or they want you to come in for a consultation before revealing a price, that’s a red flag. They’re counting on you to fall into the sunk costs trap.

Flat Fee Family Law will handle your entire divorce or legitimation case for just $3500. No hidden fees. No billing surprises. Just clear pricing and real legal help.
Ask Around. Compare. Demand Better. Break Free From Sunk Costs
Before you sign a retainer or schedule a consultation, ask one simple question: What’s your full fee? If they won’t give you a straight answer, move on. It’s time to stop letting law firms take your money without results. Flat Fee Family Law is changing how Georgia handles family law—one affordable case at a time.
