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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Jawdet for a formation case?

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

• Does Jawdet offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do formation cases in Florida typically take?

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

• Can Jawdet take my case if I'm outside Clearwater?

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

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

• Is Jawdet accepting new formation clients right now?

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