Anne-Marie's primary office is at Suite 3200, 40 Temperance Street, Toronto, ON, M5H 0B4. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Anne-Marie for a education case?

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

• Does Anne-Marie offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do education cases in this state typically take?

  Simple education 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. Anne-Marie gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Anne-Marie take my case if I'm outside the area?

  Anne-Marie evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Anne-Marie's regular jurisdictions, the intake call will confirm whether direct representation or a referral makes more sense.

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Anne-Marie?

  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. Anne-Marie will filter what matters — over-preparing at intake is always cheaper than needing a second meeting.

• Is Anne-Marie accepting new education clients right now?

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