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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Michaela for a litigation case?

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

• Does Michaela offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do litigation cases in Florida typically take?

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

• Can Michaela take my case if I'm outside Tampa?

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

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

• Is Michaela accepting new litigation clients right now?

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