Frequently asked questions.

Our firm offers a free, 15 minute initial consultation to determine if your case is one our firm can handle. To best use that time, please provide all the information you can to our intake professionals before we schedule a consultation. This information includes all relevant timelines,

Unfortunately, our attorneys are unable to review documents prior to or during a free consultation. Properly reviewing documents may take one or several hours and conversations with you to understand their purpose and context. We are able to review documents only after our firm has been retained as your counsel.

Yes. Communications during a preliminary consultation are treated as confidential.

Our attorneys are able to step in as quickly as needed to secure a TRO or file a lawsuit. If your matter is time sensitive, we request that you move quickly.

Our firm works on either a fixed fee or a pre-funded evergreen retainer. We do not provide alternative fee structures, like contingency or pro-bono.

The timeline depends on the nature of the dispute and how far it escalates. Some commercial disputes resolve in a matter of weeks through direct negotiation. Others require months of preparation, research, and procedural waiting periods. A matter that proceeds through trial and appeal extends further still.

The choice between settlement and trial depends entirely on the litigation strategy your legal team develops for the specific dispute. That strategy weighs the strength of the evidence; the cost and risk of trial; and the business outcome the client needs, and it is revisited as the dispute develops. Our attorneys assess both paths at each stage and advise clients on the one that best serves their interests.

Whether a case goes to trial depends on the litigation strategy your legal team develops; the strength of each side’s position; and the willingness of the parties to reach a resolution. A dispute may resolve before trial through negotiation, mediation, or a court ruling that decides the case early, while others proceed to a final hearing before a judge or jury. Our attorneys prepare every matter with trial in view, because that preparation puts clients in the strongest position on either path.

Every engagement is staffed with a partner, an associate, and a paralegal from day one. The partner is engaged on strategy; the associate runs day-to-day execution; the paralegal manages records and deadlines.

Our phones are staffed 24 hours a day. We try to answer all inquiries for attorneys within one business day, or if after-hours, the following business day.

Most of our work is done remotely to save client time and money, and many routine court hearings are also done virtually over Zoom. We can, however, meet with clients in person at their request if they are more comfortable doing so.

Our intake team runs a thorough conflict check prior to any consultation with an attorney.
