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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Naomi for a adoption case?

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

• Does Naomi offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do adoption cases in Michigan typically take?

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

• Can Naomi take my case if I'm outside Bessemer?

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

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

• Is Naomi accepting new adoption clients right now?

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