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

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

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

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

• Does Heather offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do employment cases in this state 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. Heather gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

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

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

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

• Is Heather accepting new employment clients right now?

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