• How much does it cost to hire Kristin for a personal injury case?

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

• Does Kristin offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do personal injury cases in this state typically take?

  Simple personal injury 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. Kristin gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

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

  Kristin evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Kristin'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 Kristin?

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

• Is Kristin accepting new personal injury clients right now?

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