Dear Hennery smith,
This is to confirm what we had already discussed last March 5. I am hiring you as my legal representative in the out-of-court settlement with Mr. Venson regarding damages to my car. I understand that discussions will be taking place on April 2. I am confident that you will be able to represent me competently in this venue.
I am attaching the documents you specified, including copies of the car registration, my notarized affidavit, and the photographs of the damaged vehicle. I understand that you will be billing me $300 an hour. Kindly confirm this arrangement by sending me back a signed copy of our written agreement. Thank you very much!
Sincerely,
Kerry
