Other Frequently Asked Questions
We operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront and no hourly fees. Our firm only gets paid if we secure a financial recovery for you through a settlement or court verdict. This ensures that financial concerns do not prevent you from seeking justice.
Your first consultation is completely free and confidential. During this meeting, we will:
- Listen to your story and answer your questions.
- Explain your legal rights under Texas and California law.
- Discuss potential legal strategies based on your case.
- Outline the next steps if you choose to move forward.
There is no obligation to hire us after the consultation—we are here to provide guidance and help you make an informed decision.
The timeline for a sexual assault case varies based on factors such as evidence, negotiations, and whether the case goes to trial. In Texas and California, some cases settle in a few months, while others may take a year or longer. Criminal cases follow a separate process from civil lawsuits, but our firm will guide you every step of the way and work to resolve your case as efficiently as possible.
Not necessarily. Many sexual assault cases in Texas and California are resolved through settlements, meaning you may not have to go to court. Our attorneys will negotiate aggressively on your behalf to secure fair compensation without the need for a trial.
However, if the other party refuses to offer a just settlement, we are fully prepared to take your case to court and fight for your rights. If a trial becomes necessary, we will guide you through the entire process, ensuring you feel supported and prepared every step of the way.
