FAQ- INITIAL CONSULTATIONS

​What is an Initial Consultation?
Cohoon Legal offers potential clients a phone consultation to speak with Amber Cohoon about their legal matters. During this time, you can determine if you want to hire Cohoon Legal for your representation and if Cohoon Legal is the best firm to handle your matter. You can ask her any questions you have, and she will assess your situation. The attorney will be able to answer if she has experience with cases like yours, what areas of the law she practices, what steps she will take for your case, and what options you may have for your legal issue.

Is a Consultation Legal Advice?
This consultation is not meant to resolve your legal question, so you will not be given much legal advice during the call. Instead, it is an opportunity to determine if you wish to hire an attorney. Lawyers are NOT required to provide legal advice during a consultation. People often believe they can have all their legal questions answered at this first meeting, at little or no cost. Unfortunately, lawyers are not supposed to give legal advice until after they have been retained, which usually requires a signed fee agreement and payment. This protects the lawyer from having to decline future clients because of a conflict of interest they weren't compensated for, and it protects the potential client from being misinformed about a situation the lawyer hasn't had a chance to research and analyze your matter thoroughly.
