During a consultation, you can expect to have a 15- to 30-minute conversation so we can understand your case and specific circumstances. The consultation call is a means for you and Opiel Law to determine if working together is a good fit for both parties.

After the initial consultation call, an in-person or virtual (online) meeting may be scheduled to discuss specific details, timelines and fees. Opiel Law does not have walk-in hours. All appointments must be scheduled in advance.
