the quiet way in
Start in your own time
Nothing here fires off an email the moment you breathe on it. Read what we will ask and why, then begin however feels safest: quietly in writing, or a ten-minute call.
If today is not safe, or papers have arrived with a date on them, skip everything below and call. Urgent matters are heard the same day.

Which matter this is
Divorce, parenting, property, protection or mediation. One word is enough. We ask so the right lawyer reads it first.
we will ask · two
How urgent it is
Deadlines, court dates, safety. We ask so nothing with a clock on it waits behind something without one.

Both full names
Yours and your former partner's. We ask so we can check for conflicts before you tell us anything private. If we cannot act, we say so before you have shared a thing.

What has been happening
Three sentences or three pages, in your own words. We ask so your first hour is spent on advice, not background.
we will ask · five
Safe ways to reach you
Which numbers are safe, whether voicemail is okay, what the envelope should look like. We ask because on a shared phone, privacy is safety.
we will ask · six
When you could come in

Begin quietly, in writing
Write as much or as little as you want, tonight or at 2am. A lawyer, not an autoresponder, reads it and replies within one business day, to the safe address you choose.
First appointment: a fixed $240, credited to your first invoice if we act for you.
