How a Consumer Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Promissory Note Agreement in South Carolina

In 2021, a personal client in South Carolina sought assistance with drafting a promissory note agreement amid challenging circumstances. The client and her husband jointly owned a company that had accrued significant debt, and while they were navigating a separation and impending divorce, she needed to establish a formal arrangement to ensure she would be reimbursed for any payments made towards those debts from her personal funds. The note was to stipulate minimum monthly payments, a repayment timeline, and terms regarding interest. As a result, the client received one proposal from a licensed lawyer, with a flat fee bid of $495, submitted to fulfill the project within the requested deadline of one week.
