Ken's primary office is at 45 O'Connor Street, Suite 2000, World Exchange Plaza, Ottawa, ON, K1P 1A4. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Ken for a international case?

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

• Does Ken offer a free consultation?

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

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

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

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

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

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

• Is Ken accepting new international clients right now?

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