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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Lou for a cannabis case?

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

• Does Lou offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do cannabis cases in Michigan typically take?

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

• Can Lou take my case if I'm outside Ann Arbor?

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

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

• Is Lou accepting new cannabis clients right now?

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