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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Françoise for a litigation case?

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

• Does Françoise offer a free consultation?

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

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

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

• Can Françoise take my case if I'm outside the area?

  Françoise evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Françoise'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 Françoise?

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

• Is Françoise accepting new litigation clients right now?

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