• How much does it cost to hire Arlyn for a general case?

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

• Does Arlyn offer a free consultation?

• How long do general cases in Nebraska typically take?

  Simple general 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. Arlyn gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Arlyn take my case if I'm outside Omaha?

  Arlyn is licensed in Nebraska. Matters governed by Nebraska law are the natural fit. Out-of-state matters are handled case-by-case, sometimes with local co-counsel. Ask during intake — Arlyn 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 Arlyn?

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

• Is Arlyn accepting new general clients right now?
