Yale's primary office is at 110 Tower, 1 Unknown, Fort Lauderdale, FL, 33301. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Yale for a general case?

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

• Does Yale offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do general cases in Florida typically take?

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

• Can Yale take my case if I'm outside Fort Lauderdale?

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

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

• Is Yale accepting new general clients right now?

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