Will Intake Form
The attorneys at Friedman & Ranzenhofer ask their prospective clients to do the best they can in completing the required fields on this intake form and collecting certain items.
Do not feel overwhelmed by the process. We will have a productive first meeting even if you are not finished collecting information. However, it is very helpful to have all the relevant information and items available to us from the beginning, as it will allow us to start the process sooner. Please feel free to call our office if you have any questions.
