• How much does it cost to hire Catarina for a health care case?

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

• Does Catarina offer a free consultation?

• Can Catarina take my case if I'm outside Seattle?

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

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