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

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

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

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

• Does Ross offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do criminal defense cases in Colorado typically take?

  Simple criminal defense 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. Ross gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Ross take my case if I'm outside Denver?

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

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

• Is Ross accepting new criminal defense clients right now?

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