• How much does it cost to hire Scotty for a car accidents case?

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

• Does Scotty offer a free consultation?

• How long do car accidents cases in Louisiana typically take?

  Simple car accidents 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. Scotty gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Scotty take my case if I'm outside Baton Rouge?

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

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

• Is Scotty accepting new car accidents clients right now?

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