Professional Consultation

Trauma-informed consultation for attorneys, advocates, organizations, and professionals working with complex victim-centered cases. We consult on interviewing strategy, case development, victim behavior, coercive control, and documentation.

Important: Advocacy provides support, information, and preparation — not legal advice. Six Echoes LLC is not a law firm and does not provide legal counsel.

Overview

Consultation for the people doing this work.

Professional consultation is for attorneys, advocates, organizations, and professionals who work with complex victim-centered cases — and who want grounded input on interviewing strategy, case development, victim behavior, coercive control, and documentation.

We bring the investigative and advocacy perspective together — the understanding of how cases develop and how people actually behave under trauma, coercion, and pressure.

FAQ

Frequently asked.

Q01

Is this expert witness work?

Not necessarily. We provide consultation and grounded input. Whether we serve as an expert witness depends on the case and jurisdiction — we discuss that directly if it's relevant.

Q02

Do you consult on cases outside Washington?

Yes, consultation can be remote. Field work is limited to our service area, but consultation isn't.

Q03

Can you train our team?

Yes. We develop tailored education for teams working with victim-centered cases — on interviewing, coercive control, documentation, and case development.

Q04

Are you a licensed investigator?

We conduct investigative work lawfully within our scope. We discuss credentials, licensing, and limits directly during engagement.

Q05

How is consultation billed?

Typically hourly or by engagement. We discuss scope and cost at the start so it's clear.
