types of consultations
Clients typically initiate their engagement with Soleil Law through a complimentary consultation to discuss their needs. Depending on the complexity of the situation, I may recommend a paid consultation.
*Note that both consultation types are protected by the attorney-client privilege and information discussed during the consultation is deemed confidential.
