• How much does it cost to hire Maura for a general case?

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

• Does Maura offer a free consultation?

• How long do general cases in Connecticut typically take?

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

• Can Maura take my case if I'm outside New Haven?

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

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