Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I need a lawyer?

If you’re not sure whether you need an attorney’s help, that’s what the consultation is for. After we review the facts, we let you know where you stand and what your legal options are. Then, you can decide for yourself if you’re ready to move forward.

What types of cases do you handle?

We handle a wide variety of legal needs, including but not limited to:

• Bankruptcy
  ○ Chapter 7 bankruptcy
  ○ Chapter 13 bankruptcy
  ○ Foreclosures

• Real estate
  ○ Property sales and purchases
  ○ Land use and zoning
  ○ Disputes

• Personal injury
  ○ Car and truck accidents
  ○ Premises and product liability
  ○ Wrongful death

How long does the process usually take?

How long your case takes depends on a lot of factors. Some cases go very quickly and are settled outside of court. Others require only paperwork. Still others go to trial and can take much longer. During the consultation, we can give you a rough estimate of how long your case is expected to be and what things might influence the timeline.
