• How much does it cost to hire Greta for a legal case?

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

• Can Greta take my case if I'm outside West Des Moines?

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

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

• Is Greta accepting new legal clients right now?

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