• How much does it cost to hire Marsha for a criminal defense case?

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

• Does Marsha offer a free consultation?

• Can Marsha take my case if I'm outside Naples?

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Marsha?

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