Stand-Your-Ground
& Immunity Hearings
Immunity hearings compress the whole case into one early proceeding, which makes disciplined threat analysis worth the most exactly then. The opinion addresses the moment of decision: the threat as it presented, and the force as it answered.
Attorney and law-firm inquiries only

Questions
Before the record is sent.
Can the analysis be ready for an early hearing?
Retention timing drives it: most reports complete within the retainer's 29 to 33 hours, and hearing dates are flagged at retention so the work lands when the calendar needs it.
What does retention cost?
A non-refundable retainer of $8,000–$9,000 covering 29–33 hours of discovery review, report writing and conferences at $275 per hour. Most reports are completed within the retainer. The full published schedule is on the For Counsel page.
