Let’s talk.
I take on a limited number of matters so I can give each my full attention with the time I have.
To keep things simple and fair, I offer an initial paid consultation that you can book here. It’s a chance for us to speak directly about your needs — no obligations, no pressure.
If you're ready to move forward, you can choose a time that suits you and pay the initial consultation fee securely when you book.
This approach helps me focus on clients who are serious about getting the right advice and ensures I can give you the time and care the matter deserves.
I allow up to 1.5 hours for the consultation. Afterward, you’ll receive a short summary of what we discussed and any recommended next steps.
This approach helps me work closely with clients who are serious about getting the right advice — and ensures I can give them the attention they’re paying for.
