How quickly can you respond to my legal matter?
As a dedicated local attorney serving Southern New Jersey, I prioritize responding to all client communications within 24 hours. For urgent matters like criminal charges or domestic violence situations, I'm available for immediate consultation.
What areas of New Jersey do you serve?
I primarily serve Collingswood and surrounding communities throughout Southern New Jersey, including Camden County and the greater Philadelphia metropolitan area.
Do you offer free consultations?
Yes, I offer initial consultations to discuss your legal matter and determine how I can best help. During this meeting, we'll review your situation and outline potential legal strategies.
What makes your practice different from other law firms?
As a solo practitioner with nearly two decades of experience, I provide personalized attention to every client. You'll work directly with me throughout your case, not be passed between different attorneys or staff members.
How much will my case cost?
Each legal matter is unique, and costs vary depending on complexity and requirements. I'm committed to transparency in billing and will discuss fees upfront during our initial consultation. For certain cases, I offer flexible payment arrangements.
Can you handle multiple legal issues at once?
Yes. As a general practice attorney, I often help clients managing overlapping legal matters - for example, handling both divorce proceedings and related real estate issues, or criminal charges alongside employment consequences.
What should I bring to our first meeting?
Bring any relevant documents related to your case - court papers, police reports, correspondence, contracts, or other important paperwork. Also bring a list of questions and key dates/events related to your situation.
How long will my case take?
Timeline varies greatly depending on the type of case. During our initial consultation, I'll provide an estimated timeline based on my experience with similar cases in local courts. I keep clients updated on progress and any changes to expected timelines.
What if I've already started working with another attorney?
You have the right to change attorneys if you're not satisfied with your current representation. I can review your case and discuss options for transition if you choose to make a change.
Do you handle emergency legal situations?
Yes. I understand that legal emergencies like domestic violence, criminal charges, or workplace termination require immediate attention. I maintain flexibility in my schedule to respond quickly to urgent situations.
