• How much does it cost to hire Taryn for a civil rights case?

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

• Can Taryn take my case if I'm outside Jacksonville?

  Taryn 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 — Taryn 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 Taryn?

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