Commonly Asked Questions
How will you determine if I have a case?
To determine if you have a case, I discuss the events related to your potential claims, such as termination or harassment, and gather as much information as possible during our call. I review related documents, talk to witnesses if needed, and analyze the evidence, potential defenses, and chances of success. Together, we’ll decide if moving forward is the right fit for both of us.
If I have a case, how long will the process take?
The timeline depends on how the case is resolved. If the employer is open to early settlement, it may take weeks or months, depending on factors like the settlement amount, evidence strength, and motivation to resolve. If the case goes to court, the process can take two years or more, depending on venue, the court’s calendar, the strength of evidence, and how aggressively the defendant contests the claims. Some cases may take longer if court schedules are particularly backed up.
If I get a settlement, how much do you charge?
I take cases on contingency, which means that I only get paid when the case is resolved. I get 33.3% if it is resolved prior to filing in court or arbitration, and 40% if the matter settles after it was filed in court.
Will I have to go to court?
Only about 5% of cases go to trial, as most are resolved through settlement beforehand. A settlement can occur at any stage of the process if both parties reach an agreement. If an early settlement isn’t reached, the client may need to testify in a deposition. This is an informal proceeding where opposing counsel asks questions while a court reporter records the testimony. If the matter does not settle and proceeds through trial, you can be confident that I will work tirelessly to win your case.
