i said the same thing to myself when i left no choice but to pay the shipping fee my former lawyer claimed. i said this to comfort myself. but what made me more frustrated is his terrible service. he didn't tell me when the file was sent, which service he used, if there was a tracking number. he didn't give me any updates for weeks except asking for money when i was in terrible need to get a reception number to update my legal status. in the end, any one would ask why should i pay additional unfair fee while nobody else has to pay it. it may be just my impression, but i don't hear any lawyer with good reputation has ever asked for "shipping fee."
