Carey's primary office is at 100 Jefferson County Pkwy Ste 5500, Golden, CO, 80401-6000. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Carey for a business case?

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

• Does Carey offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do business cases in Colorado typically take?

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

• Can Carey take my case if I'm outside Golden?

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

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

• Is Carey accepting new business clients right now?

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