Common Questions

A few notes before you write.

Does Jackie take individual criminal-defense matters? +

No. Jackie's practice is focused on advisory, expert witness, speaking, and program-design work. For individual criminal matters we are happy to refer you to qualified counsel.

What is the typical engagement length? +

Engagements range from a single advisory session to multi-month strategic counsel. Speaking engagements are typically a single date with a planning call beforehand. We'll discuss fit and scope on the intake call.

How are fees structured? +

Engagement letters set fees clearly up front — flat-fee for defined deliverables, hourly for ongoing advisory, and standard expert-witness rates for litigation work. Pro bono and reduced-fee work is reserved for select non-profit and educational engagements.

Is the first conversation confidential? +

Yes. Initial inquiries are treated as confidential, and any matters shared during intake are held in confidence regardless of whether an engagement follows.

Where is Jackie based, and is travel possible? +

Jackie is based in Los Angeles, California, and travels nationally for speaking and select engagements. Most advisory work is conducted remotely.
