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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Lacy for a commercial re case?

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

• Does Lacy offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do commercial re cases in North Carolina typically take?

  Simple commercial re 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. Lacy gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Lacy take my case if I'm outside Raleigh?

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

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

• Is Lacy accepting new commercial re clients right now?

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