Attorney fees vary based on the complexity of the case, the stage of the proceedings, and the amount of work required. Cases are typically billed by the hour and may require an upfront retainer. We offer a free initial consultation to assess your situation and provide a transparent understanding of potential costs before any engagement begins.
Do not speak with investigators without an attorney present. You have the constitutional right to remain silent and the right to legal counsel. Politely decline to answer questions and contact a criminal defense attorney immediately. What you say during any initial encounter can be used against you, and early representation by experienced counsel can significantly impact the outcome of the investigation.
As early as possible. If you have a dispute that can't be handled without legal intervention or become aware that you are the target of an investigation (such as through a grand jury subpoena, a search warrant, or a visit from agents), you should consult with an experienced attorney immediately. Early intervention allows your attorney to protect your rights, preserve evidence, and potentially influence the direction of the matter before a case is filed.
