Yes I am free then. Can we make it for 1pm NY time? Does that work? Also do I need to officially to retain you prior'? Thanks

Take it the 75 is not for the 1 1/2 phone call :) I need to understand billing + if the clock has started ticking and have a firm handle all of that side. Thanks

Ghislaine - The head of our IP Practice, Jeff Whittle, copied here, is available tomorrow for a video conference to discuss the patent issue at any time between 1130 and 230 tomorrow. Can you make it during that window?

1pm is fine. but Jeff has a hard stop at 230pm. Should be fine for an intro, and to give Jeff a good idea of what's needed to fully protect your rights. And yes, you should retain us prior. Bring a check payable to Bracewell + Giuliani for 75,000 dollars, or wire the funds in prior to your arrival. I will forward to you the wire instructions a little later today. Thanks.

Ilahaha. Its firm policy to get a retainer from all individual clients, so we'll need it before, or at, tomorrow's meeting. Tomorrow's meeting costs you nothing. and the patent project will be done at very favorable Houston rates. Jeff will give you an estimate ofthe cost ofthe project tomorrow. Most comforting ofall, I'm sure, is that you will not be billed for any of my hand-holding. Cheers.

That all sounds good. I shall come armed with a check. I will need wiring info for the future. Shall save all additional questions when I have thought through what they are and have written them down concisely so as to save time :) I look forward to working with you G
