More Info
No matter what your legal matter, chances are I have successfully represented clients in similar situations. Visit Representative Cases. My goal: provide the services you need, consistent with your objectives and budget, for a reasonable fee. My engagement can be completed quickly over the internet — all without you taking 2-4 hours from your work day to meet with me in my office.
During an initial email review or telephone consultation, I can determine if I can help. If a document review is helpful, I might ask you to send documents in a single PDF attached to an email or fax. If so, I will review the documents on receipt and email or call you to discuss fees and other terms for my recommended services. With notice, I reserve the right to require a reasonable fee for document review, legal analysis, and further consultation.
I may suggest limited scope representation as a means to keep legal services affordable and within your budget. Limited scope representation may be suitable when, for example, a response to a lawsuit is due but you cannot fund a litigation retainer. In that circumstance, I may recommend that I prepare an agreed response for you pro per to avoid your default and to protect your legal right to defend yourself. You will then have time to obtain additional funds or to develop a strategy to resolve the matter on acceptable terms. Or, perhaps, I would continue to provide additional limited, discrete legal services on a fee-for-service basis.
