FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I always provide a 1 hour free initial consultation to discuss your matter in detail , lay out a "road map", including costs and possible outcomes and answer any questions you may have. Initial consultations can be done over the phone or in person at my office. I typically work with a retainer and deduct my fees monthly from the retainer against any time spent on your case. Un-used retainers are returned to the client. My pricing is competitive and transparent. I work hard to keep your costs down while providing the utmost attention.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We typically meet in person to gather necessary documents and discuss the foundation to obtain documents which you may not have. We discuss strategy and tone, expectations and goals. We spend time formulating a game plan that fits the budget and your needs.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been a licensed attorney in good standing since 1988. I went to Law School in New York, clerked for both state and federal judges, worked in the attorney generals' office, have taught various subjects to undergrads, had cases published as well as being certified as a mediator. My focus on family law, divorce, and post divorce proceedings dates back to the 1990's.
