In implementing this policy, we adhere to the following practices: • It is our standard practice to e-mail invoices to our clients, although hard copies of invoices can be sent to clients on request. • We round to the nearest one-quarter hour (e.g., if two hours and 55 minutes are spent on a task, it is recorded as three hours, if two hours and 5 minutes are spent on a task, it is recorded as two hours). A minimum charge of one-quarter hour is charged for any client work performed in a day. • We do not markup out-of-pocket expenses; however, we may charge administrative or professional time related to the provision of the goods and services associated with these charges. • If subcontractors are used, HF&H reserves the right to charge a 5% markup should the subcontractor’s services require cumbersome administrative oversight (e.g., multiple subcontractors; engagement turns out to solely require services of subcontractor, but HF&H as the prime must prepare billings). • Mileage fees are based on the round-trip distance from the point of origin. 1 Litigation Support and Expert Witness Services are not covered by this schedule of fees and expenses.
