How to Write Ethical and Client-Focused Retainer Agreements in St. Paul and Minneapolis
For many practitioners, a retainer agreement or letter is a legal document that merely spells out the terms of the engagement and what the client will pay. We believe that the retainer agreement is an important tool to express appreciation for the work and to explain the value you will bring to the client.
We help lawyers, CPAs, financial advisors and other professionals rewrite their retainer agreements to be a way of starting to cement the relationship with a new client.
Without taking away the “legal necessities” in the letter, we write a few paragraphs that not only build the connection with your new client but also leave them feeling good about working with you. After all, the agreement is more than sort of a contract between the client and you. It is your first opportunity to show that you view them as more than a revenue source.

The article titled, “The Four Pillars of Marketing: Use Them to Grow Your Practice!,” authored by PSM Founder & President Terrie S. Wheeler, MBC, explains the first pillar- “Retain and Grow Existing Relationships”. When you want to maintain healthy relationships with your clients and turn them into your long-term partners, we suggest you take care of the aspects your competitors are missing out on.
Retainer agreements are often identified as just legal documents that are straightforward and formal. We believe, along with laying down the specifics of the client relationship, these agreements also set the tone for the future communications.
