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

Ellis 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 Ellis for a divorce case?

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

• Does Ellis offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do divorce cases in Pennsylvania 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. Ellis gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Ellis take my case if I'm outside Pittsburgh?

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

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

• Is Ellis accepting new divorce clients right now?

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