Fees, Costs and Case Results
Where representation is offered on a contingency basis there is no attorney fee unless we recover, and the firm advances case costs — filing fees, expert witnesses and medical records — which are then repaid out of any recovery. If there is no recovery, you owe no attorney fee. The specific terms that apply to a matter are set out in the written fee agreement for that matter.
Where this site refers to a verdict, settlement or court order, that result was dependent on the facts of that case, and results will differ if based on different facts. Past results do not predict or guarantee the outcome of any other matter, and no particular outcome is promised or guaranteed.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Why do Victorville businesses need country of origin legal services?
- High Desert manufacturers and importers must accurately determine and declare country of origin to CBP. Country of origin affects duty rates, trade agreement eligibility, government procurement compliance, and consumer labeling. Incorrect origin determinations can result in CBP penalties ranging from 20% to 800% of duties lost, marking duties of 10%, and shipment holds. Our Victorville country of origin attorney ensures compliance.
- What is the substantial transformation test?
- Substantial transformation occurs when manufacturing or processing results in a new and different article of commerce with a distinct name, character, and use. For example, importing steel and manufacturing automotive parts results in substantial transformation - the country of origin becomes where the parts were manufactured. Our Victorville attorney analyzes your manufacturing to determine origin.
- What are country of origin marking requirements?
- U.S. Customs requires imported products to be marked with their country of origin in a conspicuous, legible, indelible, and permanent manner. The marking must survive normal distribution and reach the ultimate purchaser. Acceptable marking methods include molding, die-stamping, etching, engraving, and permanent labels. Violations result in 10% marking duties and potential entry refusal.
- Can you help with USMCA and other free trade agreements?
- Yes. USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement) and other FTAs provide duty-free treatment for qualifying goods. We analyze product-specific rules of origin, calculate regional value content, trace originating materials, and prepare certifications of origin. We also defend against verification requests and respond to customs authority inquiries from the U.S., Mexico, Canada, and other FTA partners.
- Do you serve other High Desert and Inland Empire cities?
- Yes, from our Victorville service area we represent businesses throughout the High Desert including Hesperia, Apple Valley, Adelanto, Barstow, and Phelan. We also serve Inland Empire clients in Fontana, Rancho Cucamonga, Ontario, and San Bernardino. We represent clients at Port of Los Angeles, Port of Long Beach, and Port of Oakland.
