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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Thomes for a consumer case?

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

• Does Thomes offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do consumer cases in Kentucky typically take?

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

• Can Thomes take my case if I'm outside Louisville?

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

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

• Is Thomes accepting new consumer clients right now?

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