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

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

• How much does it cost to hire B for a divorce case?

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

• Does B offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do divorce cases in Minnesota typically take?

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

• Can B take my case if I'm outside Marshall?

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

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

• Is B accepting new divorce clients right now?

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