Retainer agreements (also referred to as representation agreements) are a type of compensation agreement with lawyers either for reserving their employment or as compensation for future services. Also inside the agreement are details on the scope and procedure for the representation.
To summarize what is a retainer agreement, it can be structured in several different ways: Client pays a set amount each month to access a certain amount of time. Be sure to spell our what happens if the time is not used – is it “lost,” or does it carry over into the next month.
A retainer agreement is a work-for-hire contract. It falls between a one-off contract and permanent employment, which may be full-time or part-time. Its distinguishing feature is that the client or customer pays in advance for professional work to be specified later.

The retainer agreement should specify that all communications between the expert and attorney are confidential and should not be disclosed by the expert at any point during or after the case is disposed.

For removable retainers: Your provider takes a dental impression of your teeth using dental putty, a soft material similar to play dough. They put the putty in trays, then insert the trays over your teeth. A dental laboratory uses the mold to create a plastic (or acrylic) teeth retainer.
