# How much does a Rhode Island disorderly conduct lawyer cost?

Most Rhode Island disorderly conduct cases are handled on a flat fee rather than hourly billing. Flat fees vary by the complexity of the case: a clean standalone disorderly conduct is on the lower end; a stacked case involving DV, DUI, resisting arrest, or multiple defendants costs more because it takes more work. Bank & Munns offers free initial consultations so you know exactly what the fee structure looks like before you hire. We also work with clients on payment plans when the situation calls for it. What you should not do is pick a lawyer on price alone. A cheaper lawyer who pleads you out at arraignment can cost you 5 years of a permanent record, failed background checks, denied apartments, and lost jobs. A lawyer who gets the case filed or dismissed costs the same now and saves you all of that later. See our (https://bankandmunns.com/criminal-defense-faqs/) for more on how we structure fees.
