Common Questions

Frequently asked questions.

A few things people ask us before getting started.

What types of matters does the firm handle?

Our practice covers personal injury, family law, estate planning, real estate, business and corporate matters, and probate. We do not handle criminal defense or bankruptcy.

How do we start working together?

Most engagements begin with a free consultation. We will listen to your situation, explain your options, and discuss next steps. No pressure, no sales pitch.

What does a personal injury case cost?

Personal injury matters are typically handled on a contingency basis. You pay nothing unless we recover for you. Details are explained during the free consultation.

How long does a case take?

Timelines vary by matter. Some engagements are completed in weeks; others take months or longer. We will give you a realistic estimate during the consultation.

Do you handle matters outside St. Louis?

Yes. We serve clients throughout the St. Louis metropolitan area and surrounding Missouri counties.

How do you handle billing?

Most matters are billed hourly, with a written estimate upfront. Personal injury matters are usually contingency. We are transparent about fees from the first conversation.
