• How much does it cost to hire Kandace for a adr case?

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

• Does Kandace offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do adr cases in Maryland typically take?

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

• Can Kandace take my case if I'm outside Funkstown?

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

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

• Is Kandace accepting new adr clients right now?

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