One full hour, scheduled directly.
The Strategy Session is a sixty-minute consultation with Attorney Levine on a single family law matter. Conducted by phone or video. The fee is $300 and is non-refundable, but it is not contingent on engaging the firm afterward. Most callers leave the session with a plan they can act on, whether that means hiring the firm, hiring no one, or doing the work themselves.
Documents central to the matter can be reviewed live during the call. Send them when you schedule with a brief note about what you want focus on; other documents can be walked through together via screen share or PDF exchange.
For matters that need more than thirty minutes can give them.
The Strategy Session is the right tier when the value is in the depth of the conversation, not the brevity. Common situations:
- An MSA on the desk that needs review before signing. Reading the document, walking through what each clause does and doesn't accomplish, and identifying what a Pennsylvania court would or wouldn't enforce.
- A planned divorce that hasn't been filed. Mapping the realistic outcome ranges, identifying what to do before filing, what to avoid, and what the timeline looks like.
- Substantial financial complexity. Multiple retirement accounts, a closely held business, real estate beyond the marital residence, equity compensation, or income that requires more than a paystub to characterize.
- A second opinion on representation. Reviewing where another attorney has the case and what, if anything, should be done differently.
- Long-marriage equitable distribution. Where the math gets meaningful and the framing of asset categories shapes the outcome.
A thirty-minute Focused Question Session ($175) is the better tier when the matter has a single specific question; the Strategy Session is for the longer conversation that the answer to that question opens up.
What to send and what to think about before the call.
The hour is more productive when the documents and the questions are organized in advance.
Documents to send when scheduling: any complaint, custody order, MSA draft, or correspondence that is central to the matter. The form asks for a brief description of what you want focus on; that note shapes how Attorney Levine reads the document before the call.
Questions to think about beforehand: what does success look like for this matter, financially, with respect to the children if applicable, and with respect to time. The clearer that picture is at the start of the hour, the more substantive the conversation can be.
Booking goes through the contact page.
Strategy Sessions are scheduled through the firm's contact page, where the intake form captures the matter description, the financial outline, and the requested time slot. Attorney Levine reviews each submission personally before confirming the session.
