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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Mason for a probate case?

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

• Does Mason offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do probate cases in California typically take?

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

• Can Mason take my case if I'm outside Cupertino?

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

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

• Is Mason accepting new probate clients right now?

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