• How much does it cost to hire Gemma for a employment case?

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

• Does Gemma offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do employment cases in New Jersey typically take?

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

• Can Gemma take my case if I'm outside New Jersey?

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

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