What do you need help with?
Two minutes of questions before anyone asks for your details — so the first conversation is useful, and so we can say honestly, early, when a matter isn't ours.
A few quick questions
These shape which attorney takes the consultation and what to prepare.
Please answer each question to continue.
We don't take this kind of matter
Hartwell & Voss handles business and estate matters for owners and families. The kind of matter you've described sits with a different kind of firm — a criminal-defense firm for charges, a family-law practice for divorce and custody, or a personal-injury firm for injury claims.
The state bar's lawyer referral line can point you to the right kind of firm in your county: (555) 013-4400 (a fictional number, in keeping with this demo). We'd rather tell you this now than take a consultation we shouldn't.
Your details
We reply within one business day. The conflict question is standard practice — it protects you as much as us.
Request received
Your request also appears at the top of the client portal — the same shared record the firm's dashboard reads.
