• How much does it cost to hire Lacee for a criminal defense case?

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

• Does Lacee offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do criminal defense cases in Florida typically take?

  Simple criminal defense 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. Lacee gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Lacee take my case if I'm outside Miami?

  Lacee 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 — Lacee 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 Lacee?

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

• Is Lacee accepting new criminal defense clients right now?
