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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Cerise for a adr case?

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

• Does Cerise offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do adr cases in Massachusetts typically take?

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

• Can Cerise take my case if I'm outside Boston?

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

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

• Is Cerise accepting new adr clients right now?

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