FAQ: General

Q: My brother has to sign a Power of Attorney but he works long hours, Does he have to come to your office or may I bring his ID for you to witness?
A: He must sign personally in the presence of two witnesses. A witness does not have to be a lawyer. It is preferable for a lawyer to prepare the power of attorney based on your specific instructions and circumstances.

Q: Someone owes me several thousand dollars and I want to sue them to give it back to me, how much would you charge to represent me in court?
A: It depends on the amount sought, the evidence of debt that you have and any possible defenses the debtor has. A claim under $25,000.00 can be commenced in Small Claims Court which is inexpensive and relatively quick.
