Private consultation concept

A considered conversation.

Space to explain the situation, ask practical questions and understand the proposed next step.

The enquiry: A concise outline of the matter
The engagement: Scope and terms discussed first

Preparing the brief

A careful beginning matters.

Before a matter is taken on, there are practical questions to resolve: the nature of the enquiry, the information available and the proposed scope. This page demonstrates a calm way to explain that process. It is a fictional practice concept and does not provide legal advice.

Areas of advice

Begin with an enquiry.

A clear outline helps identify the information needed for an initial discussion.

A personal matter

Explain the situation and what you would like to understand.

A business question

Describe the commercial context and the decision ahead.

A consultation

Discuss whether a focused appointment is an appropriate next step.

Before you call

Is the first conversation free?: Yes, the first call is free. A full one-hour consultation is $150, and it comes off your bill if you hire us.
Can you tell me whether I will win?: No honest lawyer can promise an outcome. We will explain your realistic options, the risks of each and what we would do in your position.
How are your fees structured?: Wills, powers of attorney and home closings are flat fees. Other matters are billed hourly, with a written estimate up front and a call before we go over it.
Can we meet outside office hours?: Yes. We hold evening appointments on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and most meetings can happen by video.
