Christa's primary office is at Suite 900, Purdy's Wharf Tower One, 1959 Upper Water Street, Halifax, NS, B3J 2X2. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Christa for a bankruptcy case?

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

• Does Christa offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do bankruptcy cases in this state typically take?

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

• Can Christa take my case if I'm outside the area?

  Christa evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Christa's regular jurisdictions, the intake call will confirm whether direct representation or a referral makes more sense.

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Christa?

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

• Is Christa accepting new bankruptcy clients right now?

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