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

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

• Does Rufino offer a free consultation?

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

• Can Rufino take my case if I'm outside Livingston?

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

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

• Is Rufino accepting new business clients right now?

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