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

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

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

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

• Does Jeane offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do family law cases in Iowa 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. Jeane gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Jeane take my case if I'm outside Fort Dodge?

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

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

• Is Jeane accepting new family law clients right now?

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