Thank you al for your quick and informative responses. It seems to be
universally accepted to charge for this service. You guys were a huge
help.

I totally agree with getting the money upfront.  Think about it the
lawyer is going to charge the client for getting the slides whether you
do or not.  Your time is valuable and should be compensated by whatever
hourly rate you feel you/your laboratory spent for the extra effort and
reagents.  Don't give away your work and time.

Yes and, in addition, we collect payment before we do any of the work.
Occasionally, after being informed of our charges, they cancel their
request(s).

Greetings, 

>From time to time we get requests from law firms and other outside
agencies to supply recuts and/or h&e slides. Sometimes these requests
can be time-consuming. Is anyone out there charging for these services?
