What to Expect When You Work With Us
Q: Do you charge a consultation fee?
A: Yes. The consultation fee is $300. That time isn’t just about paperwork; it’s about legal advice. When you meet with Stephanie, she’ll review the facts of your situation, explain your options, and give you a clear sense of what to expect. Whether you move forward with representation or not, you’ll walk away with real value and direction.
Q: How much will my divorce cost?
A: There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. Every case comes with its own set of variables that can raise or lower costs. Stephanie is mindful that cost matters. She’ll walk you through possible scenarios and give you a realistic sense of what to expect based on the direction you take.
Q: Can you just prepare the paperwork so I can represent myself?
A: No. Legal work isn’t just about filling in forms. Documents reflect legal strategy, not just facts. Stephanie doesn’t sign her name to anything she’s not going to stand behind in court. If you’re looking for someone to simply draft paperwork, this may not be the right fit.
Q: Can you refer me to another lawyer for something outside of family law?
A: Yes. Stephanie has strong ties to the legal community throughout South Jersey and beyond. If your issue falls outside her practice, she can connect you with someone she trusts to handle it.
