Free Consultation
There is no charge for initial telephonic consultations in which callers introduce themselves and explain why they seek legal assistance. Callers will typically be asked some questions to determine whether the firm can provide assistance or should refer the caller elsewhere. Initial consultations are not used to dispense legal advice and the time spent on an initial consultation is within the sole discretion of the firm. Initial consultations are generally kept brief to avoid interference with the representation of existing clients. -
