This letter confirms that we have been retained to represent the Town in
connection with the above and confirms our understanding regarding the financial
arrangements between us.
The services we, Mackey Butts & Wise, LLI' ("MBW"), will provide under
this agreement are advice and counsel regarding labor and employment matters,
and any discreet or special projects that the Board determines should be handled by
counsel other than the "t'own's regular attorney.
Our charges to the Town will consist of our fee, which is based upon our
regular schedule of hourly time charges, and disbursements.
The billing rate that applies to the services I perform is $175 per hour, which
is the same rate charged since 2014. The rate charged for our legal assistants is
$130 per hour.
In the various cases we undertake, we attempt to assign the attorney or
attorneys whom we believe will most effectively be able to handle the particular
issues in question from a professional standpoint cost effectively to the client. At
tines there may be more than one attorney working on your legal matters as
complexity, expertise or other issues require.
Disbursements are expenses that we incur on the Town's behalf, For

For large out-of-pocket disbursements, we will send you a copy of the bill,
ask that the Town pay it directly and send us a copy of the check so we can keep
track of the account.
The matters we are handling for the Town have been entered into our
periodic billing system. Our normal billing cycle is monthly. Payment is due upon
receipt.
If You have any questions about our work or bills, we encourage you to call
or write. If you have questions about our bill, please call as soon as you receive
your statement. We will make every effort to resolve the problem. If we have not
heard from the Town within 15 days of the date of the bill, we think it is fair to
assume that you have seen it and find it acceptable. The purpose of this requirement
is to resolve fee problems immediately while recollections of events are fresh.
Under New York State law, all attorneys are required to advise their clients
that the client has the right to arbitrate fee disputes for amounts of at least $1,000,
but less than 550,000. Members of an arbitration panel are impartial and will be
familiar with the area of law in dispute. You understand that the outcome of
arbitration is final and binding upon all parties to the dispute. In all cases, we
reserve the right to stop performing services if our invoices are not paid on a timely
basis.
MBW will extend its best efforts on behalf of the client, but the Firm does
not guarantee a favorable determination. Payment of legal fees is not contingent
upon obtaining a favorable result or determination.

withdrawal is required or permitted by ethical standards of practice. If substitution
of attorneys becomes necessary, you will promptly select substitute attorneys and
cooperate fully in effecting such substitution.
You agree that MBW may use electronic mail (e-mail) to correspond with
you and other parties, as necessary, regarding all matters for which MBW has been

is intercepted or misdirected, and that, on occasion, e-mail is lost on the Internet,
