Situations where you are called into court against your will can create the most anxiety for non-lawyers. But in many situations, having a lawyer for even one appearance can be enough to change a case in your favor.
In some cases, you will want to pursue a case on your own, because you know the facts best and are confident in your position. I may be able to guide you with presentation and strategy. In other cases, you may wish for me to appear on your behalf only at one hearing. We can negotiate an agreement based on your budget, and your needs.
In our first consultation – I will listen to you, understand what type of proceeding you are facing, and make suggestions as to what type of arrangement we can make. Even if there are no immediate solutions, we can dissipate some of the anxiety you may be facing. I will also suggest to you other resources you may not be aware of, and let you know immediately if I require more time and research to get back to you.
