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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Umberto for a family law case?

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

• Does Umberto offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do family law cases in this state typically take?

  Simple family law 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. Umberto gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Umberto take my case if I'm outside the area?

  Umberto evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Umberto's regular jurisdictions, the intake call will confirm whether direct representation or a referral makes more sense.

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Umberto?

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

• Is Umberto accepting new family law clients right now?

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