• How much does it cost to hire Seymour for a bankruptcy case?

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

• Does Seymour offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do bankruptcy cases in Florida typically take?

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

• Can Seymour take my case if I'm outside Sarasota?

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

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

• Is Seymour accepting new bankruptcy clients right now?

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