Can you still represent me?
Answer :
Probably not. However, we may be able
to provide you with a referral to an attorney who will
be able to assist you.

Some attorneys I have spoken with require

Yes. Depending on your circumstances,
we may be able to arrange a payment plan that will make
the cost of representation easier for you to handle.

Do you charge for consultations
?

legal consultation. However, if you then like to schedule
an appointment, the cost will be $100 per half hour appointment.

this mean you are my attorney?

attorney.

If I cannot get to your offices easily
and am not able to come in for an in-person consultation,
can you still assist me?
