• How much does it cost to hire Joséane for a litigation case?

• How long do litigation cases in this state typically take?

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

• Can Joséane take my case if I'm outside the area?

  Joséane evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Joséane's regular jurisdictions, the intake call will confirm whether direct representation or a referral makes more sense.

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

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