Probate Consultation

We offer two types of

consultations

1) 15-Minute Virtual Discovery Meeting or Phone Call: This free session allows us to determine if we’re the right fit for your needs. We won’t provide legal advice during this session. Topics may include identifying your case type, discussing general fee ranges, and outlining our approach to cases. No preparation is required.

2) 1-Hour In-Person or Virtual Consultation: This session costs $300 and includes legal advice. We’ll delve deep into your case, address your specific questions and concerns, and provide detailed information on fees and timelines. The fee must be paid in advance and is non-refundable; however, credits can be applied if you need to reschedule. After booking, you’ll receive a questionnaire via email. Please complete it to the best of your ability and return it before your consultation.
