Here's What Happens

I know reaching out to a lawyer can feel like a big step. Here's exactly what to expect. No surprises.

1

You Reach Out

Fill out the form below, or call me at (309) 704-0021. You don't need to have all the details. Just tell me what's going on in your own words.

2

Brief Intake Form

I'll send you a short intake form by email. Takes about 5 minutes. This helps me check for conflicts (make sure I don't already represent the other side) and understand your situation before we talk.

3

We Have a Conversation

I'll call you for a free 15-minute conversation. No sales pitch. I'll listen to your situation, answer your questions, and tell you honestly whether I can help. If I can't, I'll try to point you toward someone who can.

4

Decide Together

If we decide to work together, I'll explain the process, what it'll cost, and what I need from you. You'll always know where things stand. No surprises.

Reach Out Any Way You Prefer

However you choose to contact me, here's what I promise:

🔒
Confidential. Everything you tell me stays between us. That's the law.
Fast response. I'll get back to you within 24 hours, usually sooner.
🤝
No obligation. Talking to me doesn't commit you to anything. I'm here to help you figure things out.
💬
Plain English. I'll explain things in a way that makes sense. No legal jargon.
