I must add one more thought to all of this - why is everyone scared that a NATIONWIDE company will go to someone else instaed of holding your prices.  Basically, if everyone holds their prices - they won't have anyone else to go to - I believe it stated at their level - what can we do to get them down on pricing so we make more - what are they going to do - go to the courthouse and do the searches themselves - why doesn't everyone understand the edge we have here - if we all doubled our prices tommorrow what would they do - go to the courthouse themselves?  They cannot.  We are truly the only ones that can actually provide any client with what they need - no other company can do it without us and yet some of us are allowing them to manipulate us into lowering our fees - and ridiculously so - to the point their is no way you could stay in business.  And mind you I don't mean all nationwide companies - I have some really great clients that not only care about the work I perform but also personally care about me.
