• How much does it cost to hire Elena for a criminal defense case?

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

• Does Elena offer a free consultation?

• Can Elena take my case if I'm outside Memphis?

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

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