Sheri's primary office is at 2030 Main Street, 12th Floor, Irvine, CA, 92614. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Sheri for a hoa case?

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

• Does Sheri offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do hoa cases in California typically take?

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

• Can Sheri take my case if I'm outside Irvine?

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

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

• Is Sheri accepting new hoa clients right now?

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