PAY BY CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD

Refund policy: We are happy to provide refunds at any time before the legal services are provided. For example, if we have not yet left for the detention center and we are informed that the individual has been transferred to another facility or has been released we will refund the total payment.* If we have completed part, but not all of the services, we will refund the portion not used. For example, if we have traveled to the detention center but were not able to meet with the person due to the person or their family/friend not updating us on time we will subtract the cost of travel (for 2020 this is $164.40).
* For online payments: Our payment processor Stripe subtracts a processing fee. If we can reverse the payment before Stripe processes your payment a complete refund will be given back to the credit or debit card used. If Stripe has already processed the payment we will send a check refund in the amount received by our bank, minus a $5 processing / mail fee which covers the certified mail tracking cost. Please give us a week from the time we receive your mailing address to issue the refund check.
* For mail payments: We will send a check refund in the amount received, minus a $5 processing / mail fee which covers the certified mail tracking cost. Please give us a week from the time we receive your mailing address to issue the refund check.
