No Risk Refund Policy

We will refund the initial consultation fee within 5 business days:  1) If we do not call within 30 minutes of a scheduled initial consultation and you decline the opportunity to reschedule; or 2) If we cannot represent you because of a conflict of interest.

Do We Offer Free Consultations?

Not as a General Rule

Unlike firms that focus on personal injury litigation on a contingency fee and use free initial consultations to evaluate the potential profitability  for the firm of taking a case, Alderman & Alderman’s practice is focused on complex business disputes, for which the clients are better served by  an hourly fee arrangement.  For that reason we do not regularly offer free initial consultations.

The Pro Bono Exception
For those who have valid claims, but cannot afford a lawyer, Alderman & Alderman gladly provides pro bono legal services without a fee to qualified individuals.   We accept pro bono refers from the courts and from Greater Hartford Legal Aid.
