Graham & Penman decides not to raise billing rates.  In light of the difficult economic times being faced by our clients along with everyone else, Graham & Penman, LLP has determined to continue to hold its already competitive below-market hourly rates to their 2007 levels (we did not raise our rates last year either).  As small business owners themselves, the partners at Graham & Penman understand the need to manage expenses during these tough times.  Partner Jason Graham stated, "Our clients know that we are all in this together.  Keeping our rates down was one more way for us to demonstrate that philosophy."  For that reason, Graham & Penman also offers a variety of payment options and creative fee arrangements that can be custom tailored to our clients' needs.  Please call Jason Graham or Bob Penman to discuss any issue relating to fees or creative fee arrangements.
