• How much does it cost to hire Leane for a business case?

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

• Does Leane offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do business cases in Indiana typically take?

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

• Can Leane take my case if I'm outside Munster?

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

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

• Is Leane accepting new business clients right now?

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