Can You Answer My Legal Questions Over The Telephone?

Under the ethical rules that govern lawyers in Oregon, a key issue is when an attorney/client relationship begins. Peter will have an initial consultation with you, for which he will bill for his time. This is an informational meeting in which Peter will get basic information about your case, and will help you understand the general outline of the issues you will need to resolve. After that meeting, you will need to decide whether you want to enter into a formal attorney/client relationship with Peter. After you have done so, Peter can, and will, answer your legal questions by telephone, in person, and by email, if you choose.
