Frequently Asked Questions

We provide free 30-minute consultations. To schedule your consultation, simply reach one of our team members at 303-847-0120 or submit your information below.

  •  After the free consultation, if we determine that we can assist with your case, we will schedule a more in-depth initial meeting. This meeting can take place in person at our office, over Zoom, or by phone, depending on what is most convenient for you.

    Prior to this initial meeting, we will provide you with fee agreements that outline our services and billing structure. Please note that these agreements must be signed, and the required retainer fee submitted, before we can officially begin work on your case.

 During the initial meeting, we will have an open discussion to better understand the details of your case. This will allow us to create a comprehensive strategy and plan to best represent your interests.

Yes, you will have a designated primary attorney who will handle your case from start to finish. This ensures that you have a consistent point of contact and a trusted advocate dedicated to your needs.

However, our firm believes in a collaborative approach. While your primary attorney represents you, they work closely with our team of experienced attorneys who contribute their diverse expertise and insights behind the scenes. This means that you not only benefit from the focused attention of your primary attorney but also gain the advantage of a collective wealth of knowledge and perspectives. Ultimately, this collaboration enhances your case and ensures that you receive the highest level of service and advocacy.

To begin our attorney-client relationship, a $2,500 retainer fee is required. This retainer fee serves as a security deposit to cover our services.

In addition to the retainer, you will be billed weekly for the actual hourly rates of the specific 4th Street Law team members working on your case. For example, if one of our attorneys billed 8 hours at a rate of $325 per hour, you would be invoiced $2,600 for that week, on top of the $2,500 retainer. However, please note that the weekly billing amount can vary depending on the complexity of your case and the work required – this $2,600 example is for illustrative purposes only.

The same card used to pay the initial $2,500 retainer will be charged weekly for the hourly billing. If a weekly payment is not successfully processed, we will utilize the $2,500 retainer to ensure your representation continues uninterrupted.

At the end of your case, any unused portion of the $2,500 retainer will be refunded to you. This retainer system provides a financial safeguard while allowing us to bill you transparently for the legal services rendered.

 
 

 We respect client privacy, and every interaction you have with our firm is confidential. Your trust is of extremely importance to us, and we are committed to protecting your personal information throughout the legal process.

To make the most of your initial consultation, it’s helpful to bring any relevant documents related to your case, such as court papers, legal notices, or any correspondence from opposing parties. Additionally, having a list of questions or concerns you’d like to address can ensure we cover everything important during our time together.

The duration of the legal process can vary significantly depending on the specifics of your case. Factors such as court schedules, the complexity of the issues involved, and the cooperation of other parties can all impact timelines. During your initial consultation, we will provide a more tailored estimate based on your unique situation and discuss what you can expect moving forward.

Client Reviews

"I sincerely thank Caroline, Chris and Megan for everything they have done for me. I had a consultation with another large firm before I retained them. I do not think any other firm could have a better understanding about domestic violence, the abuse of the child experiencing during this traumatic process. Our journey was very rocky and full of sorrow. They never gave up on me and supported me like their family. I am forever thankful for everyone in this firm!"

"Caroline Cooley is a top notch attorney and her team is exceptional. I have experience with many other attorneys and she stands out head and shoulders above the rest. She is so nice, fair, and professional. On my case, she was two steps ahead of the opposing cancel at every step and was awesome to watch. Megan Urioste, the paralegal was professional, friendly, on spot, and made things easy. Chris Linas, Associate Attorney, was very professional, prepared, kind, and provided exceptional support as well. What a team. My divorce was in good hands and all ended perfectly. The opposition was convinced it was fair. She saved me well over $100,000. Truthfully. I highly recommend."
