How We Work

Our Process

A clear, four-step path from your first call to a resolution, so you always know what comes next.

Free Consultation

Every case starts with a free, confidential consultation. We listen to your situation, explain the law in plain language, outline the likely paths forward, and answer your questions, with no pressure and no obligation. You'll leave knowing where you stand and what your options are.

Investigation

We gather the facts that win cases: police reports, body-cam and dash-cam footage, discovery, financial records, medical records, and witness statements. We request and preserve evidence early, before it disappears, and identify the weaknesses in the case against you or the value in your claim.

Strategy

There is no template. We build a strategy tailored to your goals, your circumstances, and the specific court your case is in. Whether that means filing motions to suppress, negotiating with the prosecution or opposing counsel, preparing for mediation, or readying the case for trial, you'll understand the plan and your role in it.

Resolution

We resolve your case the right way, through negotiated settlement, mediation, a favorable plea, or a trial verdict. We prepare every case as if it will go to trial, which strengthens our position at the negotiating table and means we're ready if it does.

How the Process Differs by Practice Area

Criminal Defense & DUI

Investigation centers on how evidence was obtained, traffic stops, field sobriety and breath tests, searches, and statements. We move quickly to challenge unlawful procedures and protect your record, your license, and your freedom.

Family Law & Cooperative Divorce

Where appropriate, we steer matters into Cooperative Family Law or mediation rather than courtroom battles, focusing on parenting plans, fair division, and durable agreements that protect children and reduce cost and conflict.

Personal Injury

We work on a contingency basis: investigation focuses on liability and damages, we handle the insurance negotiation, and you pay nothing unless we recover for you.

Questions About Working With Us

How much does a consultation cost?

Your initial consultation with A&M Law is free and confidential. Call 406-830-3060 to schedule.

How quickly should I contact an attorney?

As soon as possible. In criminal and DUI matters especially, early action lets us preserve evidence, meet filing deadlines, and protect your rights before key decisions are made.

Will my case go to trial?

Most cases resolve through negotiation, mediation, or settlement, but we prepare every case as if it will go to trial. That preparation is exactly what strengthens your position in negotiation.

How will you keep me informed?

You'll have direct access to your attorney and clear updates at each stage (consultation, investigation, strategy, and resolution) so you always know where your case stands.
