• How much does it cost to hire Fredrick for a commercial re case?

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

• Can Fredrick take my case if I'm outside Walnut Creek?

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

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