We understand that legal work can be expensive and that many people are worried about how they will pay for the family law help they need. At Coach My Case, our pricing structure is designed to meet the needs of people who choose to represent themselves in court after separation or divorce.
When you hire a traditional family law firm, you pay a retainer fee upfront in the range of $3000-$10000. Most lawyers won’t do any work until this retainer fee is paid. At Coach My Case, legal assistance is paid for on a pay-as-you-go model, so no big retainer is necessary before work starts on your file.
Also, we provide legal assistance for a variety of budgets. From legal coaching to paralegal navigation, our rates are clear upfront so you always know how much you will pay.
Have a call with one of our paralegal navigators who can provide you with legal information and walk you through the types of family law services that Coach My Case can provide to help you with your case.
Our experienced paralegal navigators provide insight into the complex family law and divorce system. While they cannot provide you with legal advice, our paralegal navigators can help you with filing or drafting legal documents, editing or ghost writing your letters, and preparing all of your documents so you can attend court with confidence.
Our experienced family lawyers will help you to effectively represent yourself in divorce court. Family lawyers can provide you with advice and guidance in the background while you attend court or mediation. Our family lawyers can also assist you in drafting legal documents, preparing you for court or family law mediation, research on legal issues and calculating child or spousal support.

The initial 20-minute strategy session with our legal coaches is complimentary. However, if your consultation extends beyond 20-minutes, you will be charged for any additional time at the legal coach's hourly rate, billed in 6-minute increments (0.1 of an hour). This means any time beyond the complimentary period will be prorated based on the actual duration spent with the coach.
Upon booking your initial consultation, we will ask for your credit card details, but rest assured, you will not be charged immediately. Instead, Coach My Case will pre-authorize your credit card up to 24-hours in advance of your scheduled consultation for 0.5 hours at your chosen service provider's hourly rate, which varies depending on the coach’s experience and scope (for example, if your legal coach’s hourly rate is $150 per hour, your credit card will be pre-authorized for $75). This pre-authorization ensures that funds are available to pay for services if your consultation runs beyond the free 20-minutes. If you do not go beyond the complimentary period, the pre-authorization on your credit card will be released.
If your consultation extends beyond 20-minutes, you will be charged for any additional time at the legal coach's hourly rate, billed in 6-minute increments (0.1 of an hour). This means any time beyond the complimentary period will be prorated based on the actual duration spent with the coach. In such cases, your pre-authorized credit card will be charged for any additional time at the legal coach's hourly rate, billed in 6-minute increments (0.1 of an hour). If the final charge is less than the pre-authorized amount, the difference will be refunded to your card within 2-business days.
You will receive a bill for work completed within 2 business days. We ask that you pay that bill before we proceed with further work.
No, clients are not billed for work before it is completed. However, for financial security and to ensure that funds are available for any services rendered, Coach My Case may pre-authorize your credit card for up to 4-hours of work at your legal coach's hourly rate, plus applicable provincial taxes. This pre-authorization is a standard procedure to hold the potential amount needed for the services you may require, but it is not an actual charge. You will only be billed for work done after it is completed. If the final billing is less than the pre-authorized amount, the difference will be released back to your credit card within 2-business days. This process and any associated amounts will be communicated with you in advance.
