• How much does it cost to hire Tynika for a adoption case?

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

• Does Tynika offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do adoption cases in South Carolina typically take?

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

• Can Tynika take my case if I'm outside Blythewood?

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

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