Tasha's primary office is at 400 3rd Avenue, SW, Suite 3700, Calgary, AB, T2P 4H2. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Tasha for a environmental case?

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

• Does Tasha offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do environmental cases in this state typically take?

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

• Can Tasha take my case if I'm outside the area?

  Tasha evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Tasha's regular jurisdictions, the intake call will confirm whether direct representation or a referral makes more sense.

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

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

• Is Tasha accepting new environmental clients right now?

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