You are paying for their AVAILABILITY. If they are unavailable, they
do not get paid. If they are available but the work isn't they do get
paid. State it in the contract. Make a list of your concerns for the
attorney when you have him/her draft or review the contract.
I like this concept because it seems fair all around.
