• How much does it cost to hire Earl for a criminal defense case?

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

• Can Earl take my case if I'm outside Redding?

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

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