actually $800 is like the best price i have heard. your lawyer will eat $335 and you have to gather all the evidence, you pay for the passport photos and shipping. you will do all the work we self applicants did plus more since you have to drive to his office and patiently wait there. really all you are paying for is..... well i don't know maybe his ink to print the form out and time. if your record is clean, you have never even touched a cop car then you could have done it without forking over $800
