            Let's Get Started


            1. Request a Consultation

            An initial consultation is the usual first step in any representation. You will have one on one time with an attorney by telephone, web conference, or live in the office, to discuss the details of your case and to determine any next steps. For many clients, this consultation may be sufficient in itself to resolve the matter.

            Contact Us

            2. Establish Engagement

            Continued representation after the initial consultation begins with a Letter of Engagement, which governs the representation and establishes baseline expectations concerning fee structure, communications, services being provided, etc. Some matters, such as most estate plans, will clarify the specific documents and counsel being provided, usually at a flat fee. Other matters, such as most litigation, will require a retainer to provide a source of payment for fees billed at an hourly rate.

            3. Ongoing Representation

            As your matter proceeds, you will be updated about the current status and apprised of action items needed. Communications are often via email, but may take the form of in-person meetings, virtual videoconferences, or telephone calls. For sharing of sensitive documents and information, we offer a secure client portal as well. At every step along the way, you are free to get clarifications and ask questions until your matter is resolved.
