• How much does it cost to hire Randie for a contracts case?

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

• Does Randie offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do contracts cases in New York typically take?

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

• Can Randie take my case if I'm outside Rye Brook?

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

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

• Is Randie accepting new contracts clients right now?

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