Florida Family Law Consultations
A direct video conversation with a expert Florida family law attorney.
Forty-five, seventy-five, or ninety minutes. Flat fee. You bring the question. I bring 22 years of Florida divorce, custody, and alimony experience and an unsentimental answer.
What it is
A scheduled video conversation. You bring your questions. I bring 22 years of experience reading these patterns and the willingness to give you a direct, unsentimental answer about where you stand and what your options are.
Three tiers
Choose the depth of conversation.
Most clients book Full Picture (75 min). One question is rarely just one question.
45 minutes
Quick Read
$495
One specific question, fully answered.
Should I sign this MSA? Is the proposed alimony reasonable? Do I have grounds to modify?
Book Quick Read ($495) →75 minutes
Full Picture
$795
Your full Florida family law situation, mapped end to end.
We walk through the entire matter, identify what actually matters legally, and lay out your options. Most clients leave knowing whether they need a lawyer at all — and which kind.
Book Full Picture ($795) →90 minutes + written plan
Strategic Plan
$995
A written Florida family law strategy plan in 5 business days.
Ninety minutes of conversation followed by a written plan summarizing your situation, the strategic options, and a recommended sequence of next steps. Yours to keep.
Book Strategic Plan ($995) →Who it's for
- •People in early phases of a family law situation — separation considered, divorce contemplated, modification possible — who want expert strategic input before making decisions.
- •People mid-situation who feel stuck and want an expert's read.
- •People who want flat-fee certainty rather than an hourly clock.
- •People comfortable receiving direct, sometimes uncomfortable, advice.
What I help with
- •Strategic options for your specific situation.
- •Plain-language explanation of relevant Florida family law.
- •Document review during the meeting if helpful.
- •Honest assessment of strengths and weaknesses.
- •Recommended next steps — including, when appropriate, that you do not need a lawyer at all.
What's not included
- •Court appearances. Ever.
- •Becoming counsel of record on your behalf.
- •Drafting documents (that's Presuit Resolution).
- •Ongoing engagement after the consultation.
- •Emergency relief, TROs, or ex parte motions.
Expected outcome
You leave the conversation knowing where you stand, what your real options are, and what the smart next step is. For most people, that’s enough — a single 75-minute conversation often resolves the question they came in with. If your situation calls for more, I’ll tell you.
How to book
Pick the tier that fits. Calendly handles scheduling. Payment processes through PayPal before the meeting. You’ll receive a brief intake form to complete before our scheduled time.
Why this answer is independent
Every other attorney offering you a consultation is hoping you become a litigation client. I have no such incentive. The flat fee is the entire fee. That is what makes the answer truly independent.

Consultations are advisory only. They do not establish ongoing attorney-client representation, do not include court appearances, and do not constitute counsel-of-record representation.
How the four bands work
Pricing reflects depth of review.
After the strategy audit, I assign your matter to one band based on case complexity and document volume.
Band A
Foundation
$3,500
Pre-filing or early-stage. Organized record. One core strategic question. The only Second Opinion that delivers a written, portable strategic asset for buyers who aren't yet in court — and aren't ready for a monthly counsel relationship.
Band B
Active Case
$7,500
Active mid-case. Moderate document volume. Some conflict. Strategic question is about mediation prep, settlement posture, or next-phase tactics. Most clients land here.
Band C
High-Conflict
$15,000
Complex or high-conflict. Higher-value disputes. Multiple moving pieces. A major decision point — or a clear sense the current strategy isn't working.
Band D
War Room
Custom · starting at $20,000
350+ docket entries. Multi-front motion practice. Complex assets. Messy or contested record. Full attorney's re-read, scoped and quoted after the $750 audit based on document volume and posture.
Most clients land in Band B ($7,500). Band assignment is made by the attorney, not the client — and the $750 intake credits toward whichever band you're assigned.
