• How much does it cost to hire Wilford for a business case?

• Can Wilford take my case if I'm outside Hood River?

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

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

• Is Wilford accepting new business clients right now?

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