PAYMENT PLANS FOR Legal Fees

Legal issues rarely happen at a convenient time. Whether you’re facing an immigration matter, federal litigation, or another legal challenge, getting experienced legal guidance when you need it most can make all the difference.

This option can provide greater flexibility in paying legal fees while allowing us to move forward with your case without unnecessary delays.

WHY CLIENTS APPRECIATE This Option
F A Q s
Who provides the financing?
Financing is offered through Affirm as part of LawPay’s Pay Later program. Burgos Law does not make lending decisions.
Rates from 0-36% APR, based on credit. Payment options through Affirm are subject to an eligibility check and are provided by these lending partners: affirm.com/lenders.
Will everyone qualify?
No. Financing is subject to an eligibility review by Affirm.
Can I choose my payment plan?
If approved for Affirm financing, your APR may range from 0% to 36%, depending on your eligibility. Available repayment terms are 3, 6, 12, 18, or 24 months. You’ll be able to review the options available to you before selecting your financing plan. There are no late fees, giving you added flexibility when managing your payments.
Does Burgos Law receive payment immediately?
Yes. Once financing is approved and completed, the firm receives the full invoiced amount upfront so we work on your case can begin without waiting for installment payments.
What is Affirm?
Affirm gives you the flexibility to pay for your legal services over time rather than paying the full amount upfront. If you qualify, you can review the available payment options and choose a plan that works best for your budget. Please note that Affirm financing is available only to individual customers and cannot be used by businesses or other entities for commercial purposes.
When is a consumer's first payment due?
Your first payment is generally due about one month after your payment is processed. Depending on your eligibility and the amount of your loan, you may be asked to make a down payment at the time of purchase. Your specific payment schedule will be provided when you complete the financing process.
Can I pay off my Affirm financing early?
Yes! You can pay off your Affirm financing early at any time, and there is no penalty for paying off your loan early. This gives you the flexibility to pay your balance ahead of schedule if your budget allows.
How do I make installment payments for this loan?
Your installment payments are made directly to Affirm, not to Burgos Law. You can make or schedule payments through your Affirm account on their website or through the Affirm mobile app. Your loan agreement will include additional details about your payment schedule and terms.
Should I communicate with my lawyer if I have questions about my loan?
Questions about your Affirm loan or payment schedule should be directed to Affirm, as they manage the financing and payments. You can contact Affirm through their customer support resources or through your Affirm account. Your Burgos Law attorney can continue to assist you with questions about your legal services and case.
For any technical or loan-related inquiries, please visit www.affirm.com/help or call 855-423-3729.
Why do I need a mobile number to use Affirm?
Affirm requires a U.S. or U.S. territory mobile number to help verify your identity and confirm that you are the person creating and accessing the account. This is part of Affirm’s account security and verification process.
How does Affirm differ from a credit card?
Affirm financing works differently from a traditional credit card. Instead of providing a revolving line of credit, Affirm approves you for a specific amount to borrow and allows you to choose from available repayment terms. Your payment schedule is set based on the financing option you select, and there is no penalty for paying off your loan early. Affirm loans also do not charge compound interest.
Do I have to use Affirm via Pay Later to pay my attorney?
No. You are not required to use Affirm to pay for your legal services. Affirm is simply one payment option your attorney may offer. If you prefer, you can ask Burgos Law about other available payment methods that may work better for you.
