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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Lonnie for a environmental case?

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

• Does Lonnie offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do environmental cases in California typically take?

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

• Can Lonnie take my case if I'm outside Redwood City?

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

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

• Is Lonnie accepting new environmental clients right now?

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