Is the first consultation really free?
Yes for personal injury and for most civil intake meetings under an hour. Estate planning and business formation consults are often credited toward flat-fee work if you retain us.
Do you take cases outside Richmond?
Yes — throughout central Virginia, and federal matters in the Eastern District. Travel is built into the fee discussion when a case sits far from Cary Street.
How soon should I call after an accident?
As soon as you are medically stable. Evidence fades, and insurers move quickly. Virginia has filing deadlines (statutes of limitation) that can end a claim if you wait too long.
Will my case go to trial?
Most settle. We prepare as if they will not. You decide whether to accept a settlement offer; we give you a clear recommendation and the reasons behind it.
Do you handle criminal defense or family law?
No. We refer those matters to lawyers we trust. Trying to be everything is how firms become mediocre at everything.
