Isabelle's primary office is at 1010 Rue de la Gauchetière Ouest #1230, Montreal, QC, H3B 2N2. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Isabelle for a business case?

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

• Does Isabelle offer a free consultation?

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

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

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

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

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

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

• Is Isabelle accepting new business clients right now?

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