• How much does it cost to hire Wan for a employment case?

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

• Does Wan offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do employment cases in California typically take?

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

• Can Wan take my case if I'm outside Laguna Beach?

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

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

• Is Wan accepting new employment clients right now?

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