Let me put my experience as a counselor at law to work for you to get you ready to face cross-examination and more. We can do this most successfully face to face but the telephone is better than nothing. I recommend 3 meetings before trial - it can be a long process remember and you need the practice and preparation. $200 per hour.

Schedule a Consultation or Trial Preparation Sessions

Call Karla today for a consultation. The consultation fee is $150, which applies to whatever you and Karla decide is the best course of action. Each consultation is thorough and takes about an hour.

Karla will learn about the facts of your case (why you ended up sitting in her office), inform you about the applicable law, discuss the various methods to deal with your situation, and describe the processes that you can expect to go through. At the end of the consultation, Karla sets the fee for the case.

Karla and her clients never argue about money because she offers flat fee billing. She does not use the "bait and hook" method of "small" retainers and then overwhelm clients with hourly billing. Her fee remains the same whether she resolves the case in three minutes or three years. If she does it in three minutes, Karla accepts a bonus. ☺

Payment Terms

Karla accepts payment in cash, cashier's checks, and local checks as well as via USPS money orders and PayPal.
