How it works

Three steps, no mystery

1

Tell me what's going on

A free 20-minute call. You talk, I listen, and by the end you'll know whether you need a lawyer at all — and what it would cost if you do.

2

Get a plan in plain English

One page: what we're doing, what it costs, how long it takes, and what I need from you. You sign only when it all makes sense.

3

I handle it, you stay informed

I do the work and translate every development. No surprise bills, no six-minute billing increments, no wondering what's happening.

Services & fees

Most matters, priced before we start

If your situation doesn't fit a flat fee, you'll get a written estimate and a cap before I bill a single hour.

Simple will package

$450 flat

Will, powers of attorney, and healthcare directive for one person. Couples $700. Done in two visits.

Includes a plain-English summary sheet

Uncontested divorce

from $1,200 flat

When you both agree on the big things and want it handled cleanly, quickly, and with the temperature kept low.

Includes all filings and one settlement conference

LLC formation

$600 flat

Formation done right: filings, operating agreement, and an hour on what your new company can and can't protect.

Includes registered-agent setup

Custody & support

estimate first

Contested family matters get a written fee estimate and a cap after your free call. You'll never be billed blind.

Payment plans available

Sample pricing for template purposes. Court costs and filing fees are always listed separately, never hidden.

I opened Cedar Creek Law because I kept watching regular people get priced out of good legal help — or scared off by offices designed to intimidate them. Most of my clients have never hired a lawyer before. That's exactly who this practice is built for.

When you call, you get me. When you email, I answer. And when the law gives you a cheaper or simpler path than hiring me, I'll point you to it.

Questions people actually ask

Before you even have to ask

Do I really need a lawyer for this?

Maybe not! That's a real answer you might hear on your free call. Some matters are safe to handle yourself with the right forms, and I'll say so. You should only pay for a lawyer when a lawyer actually changes your outcome.

What happens on the free 20-minute call?

You describe your situation in your own words. I'll tell you how the law sees it, what your realistic options are, and what each would cost. No pressure and no obligation — the call is useful even if we never work together.

Is everything I tell you confidential?

Yes. Consultations are confidential even if you don't hire me. Talk freely — that's the only way I can give you an honest read.

Can I pay in installments?

For most flat-fee matters, yes: half to start, half at the midpoint. Contested matters can be set up on a monthly plan we agree to in writing before work begins.

Tell me what's going on.

Twenty minutes, free, confidential. Worst case, you'll leave the call understanding your situation better than you do right now.
