Working with a new environmental attorney should feel structured. Here's how the first two conversations with Alyse usually go, from the moment you request a consult to the day representation begins.

Alyse discusses fees during intake so the arrangement fits the matter. Contingency, hourly, and flat-fee options are all common in environmental practice — ask which fits.

• How much does it cost to hire Alyse for a environmental case?

  Cost depends on the type of matter, the fee model (contingency, flat, hourly), and how contested the case becomes. Alyse walks through the likely range during the consult so there are no surprises.

• Does Alyse offer a free consultation?

  Alyse charges for the initial consult; that fee is credited toward representation if you retain Alyse's office. Some environmental attorneys offer free consults — check Alyse's current terms during booking.

• How long do environmental cases in New York typically take?

  Simple environmental matters can wrap in a few weeks; disputed cases can run 6–18 months from intake to resolution, longer if the matter goes to trial. Alyse gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Alyse take my case if I'm outside Walden?

  Alyse is licensed in New York. Matters governed by New York law are the natural fit. Out-of-state matters are handled case-by-case, sometimes with local co-counsel. Ask during intake — Alyse will tell you if the case is a fit or refer you to someone closer to your court.

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Alyse?

  Bring every document that touches the dispute: contracts, correspondence, police or medical reports, filed pleadings, invoices, photographs, insurance letters. Also bring a written timeline of what happened, in your own words. Alyse will filter what matters — over-preparing at intake is always cheaper than needing a second meeting.

• Is Alyse accepting new environmental clients right now?

  Alyse's intake status shifts week to week. Submit the form; the office will confirm availability or refer the matter out.
