• How much does it cost to hire Gail for a family law case?

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

• Does Gail offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do family law cases in New York typically take?

  Simple family law 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. Gail gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Gail take my case if I'm outside Garden City?

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

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

• Is Gail accepting new family law clients right now?

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