One conversation gets you straight answers: what your options are, what your case will cost, and what happens next. No pressure, no obligation — and for uncontested divorce and probate matters, the phone consultation is free.
In short: You can schedule a consultation with The Harris Firm LLC two ways — book a time directly on our online calendar, or call the office nearest you: Birmingham, Chelsea, Huntsville, or Montgomery.
What it costs: Phone consultations are free for uncontested divorce and probate or estate planning matters, and personal injury consultations are free by phone or in person. Consultations for contested family law matters are $100, as are in-person consultations for family law and probate matters.
How online booking works: Pick an available time on the calendar, enter your contact information and a sentence about your matter, and you will receive a confirmation by email. The attorney calls you at the time you chose.
Good to know: Everything you tell us is confidential, whether or not you hire the firm. Consultations are with a licensed Alabama attorney, not a salesperson.

What to Expect From Your Consultation
A consultation is a working conversation with an attorney, not a sales pitch. Here is how it goes.
Book a Time or Call
Pick a slot on the online calendar or call the office nearest you. Our staff confirms the appointment and collects basic contact information.
Talk Through Your Situation
The attorney listens first, then asks the questions that matter: your county, your timeline, children, property, and what outcome you are hoping for. Everything is confidential.
Get Your Options and an Exact Quote
You leave the consultation knowing your realistic options and the cost — a published flat fee where one applies, or a specific retainer quote for contested matters. No vague ranges.
Decide on Your Own Time
There is no obligation and no pressure. When you are ready to hire the firm, the engagement and payment are handled electronically and your case gets moving.
What to Have Ready
You do not need a stack of documents for a consultation — a clear picture of your situation is enough. It helps to have a few basics handy:
✓ Full names of the people involved (spouse, other parent, or the person who passed away)
✓ The Alabama county where you live — and where the other party lives, if different
✓ Key dates: marriage, separation, or date of death for probate matters
✓ Children’s ages, if children are involved
✓ A general picture of property, debts, or the estate — rough is fine
✓ Your questions — write them down so nothing gets forgotten
Consultations — Frequently Asked Questions
1.How much does a consultation cost?
Phone consultations are free for uncontested divorce, probate or estate planning, and personal injury matters. Injury consultations are also free in person. Consultations for contested family law matters are $100, and in-person consultations for family law and probate matters are $100.
2.How does online booking work?
Click any Book Online button on this page, pick an available time on the calendar, and enter your contact information with a sentence about your matter. You will get an email confirmation, and the attorney calls you at the time you chose.
3.Is my consultation confidential even if I do not hire the firm?
Yes. Attorney confidentiality protects what prospective clients tell us during a consultation, whether or not you end up hiring The Harris Firm LLC. Speak freely — the attorney can only help with what they actually know.
4.Do I need documents for the consultation?
No. Names, dates, your county, and a general picture of the situation are enough for the attorney to explain your options and quote your cost. If documents matter later, your attorney will tell you exactly which ones to gather.
5.Can I meet in person instead of by phone?
Yes. In-person consultations are available at all four offices — Birmingham, Chelsea, Huntsville, and Montgomery. They are $100 for family law and probate matters and free for personal injury matters. Most clients find the phone consultation faster and just as productive, but the choice is yours.
6.What if I need to reschedule?
Life happens. Use the link in your confirmation email or call the office you booked with, and we will move your consultation to a time that works. We would rather reschedule than have you rushed.
