• How much does it cost to hire Harriet for a tax case?

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

• Can Harriet take my case if I'm outside Houston?

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

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