Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We do offer free, 30-minute consultation by phone. Although not suitable for document review or asking complex questions about a client's case, these calls are perfect for answering basic questions about the law or court process. Alternatively - and especially if the client is facing a deadline - we encourage applicants to schedule a traditional appointment at the office. This gives us a chance to explore a client's matter in more detail, and look over important legal papers.
