Longacre & Associates, Inc. - Billing Schedule

Billing Schedule

Research will be invoiced as projects are completed. Lengthy projects may be invoiced monthly.

Longacre and Associates, Inc., dedicates itself to completing research projects in a timely and professional manner. We expect our clients to pay the invoice when it is due. Invoices are due 30 days from the invoice date.

Retainers may be required from first-time clients, for projects that are lengthy, or those that require large upfront expenses.

Longacre and Associates, Inc., will provide written or oral estimates if requested. If the project is expected to total 10% over the estimate, work will not begin until the client is contacted and approves the estimated charges.

Invoices overdue by 30 days will be charged at an additional 2% per month. Overdue invoices will be turned over to our attorney or to a collection agency.
