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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Ward for a class action case?

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

• Does Ward offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do class action cases in this state typically take?

  Simple class action 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. Ward gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

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

  Ward evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Ward'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 Ward?

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

• Is Ward accepting new class action clients right now?

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