Let's Talk About Your Goals

Enrollment Open

February 2027 enrollment is open now — preparation can begin immediately. Tell me where you are and what you need, and I'll tell you honestly whether I can help.

Book a Consultation

Free Initial Consultation

I offer a free initial conversation so we can discuss your situation, your exam timeline, and whether my approach is the right fit. No pressure, no sales pitch — just an honest assessment of how I can help.

My Guarantee

You don't wait for a reply at all. Pick a date for your consultation and you'll receive instant confirmation — no back-and-forth, no wondering whether your message landed. The only limit is four hours' notice, so the soonest you can book is four hours from now.

That calendar is for consultations. Sessions I schedule myself, because a package doesn't buy a balance of hours to spend — it reserves a standing slot, the same time each week, held for you across the whole exam cycle. And every piece of written work you submit — mocks, essays, performance tests — comes back within 72 hours, timed from your timestamped submission. Miss it, and you get a free hour of tutoring, whether or not you ever buy. Grading closes three days before your cohort's exam, so that window never collides with the closure below.

One closure worth naming: on any day a bar examination is being administered to applicants testing with standard time, and for the two days after, I am closed. I ask my students to rest; I take those days myself. Examinees are also bound not to carry exam content out with them, so there is nothing about the examination I could properly discuss in any case.

So you know before we talk, there is one way to work together: the Full Prep Package, from $2,000 for 10 hours up to $5,000 for unlimited (up to 8/week), including Bar Exam Command Center access and the pass guarantee. I don’t sell single sessions. What I do instead is let you pay for each session after you’ve had it — $500 to start, then session by session. See what's included →

Availability
Consultations — book on the calendar above. What it offers is genuinely open; it already accounts for teaching, holidays, and the exam-period closure. Four hours' notice minimum, running about two months out.
Sessions — I schedule these directly with you. A package reserves a standing time slot, the same time each week, held for the whole exam cycle.
The days I teach — Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, 6am to 11pm Eastern. Evenings and weekends cost exactly the same as any other slot; there is no premium for the hours most people studying around a job can actually use. Mondays and Wednesdays I am at Hofstra and take no sessions — but the 72-hour grading clock keeps running on those days, so a mock you submit Sunday night is never sitting behind my teaching schedule.
The last two weeks before your exam — on my open days I am available around the clock, any hour you need. Starts outside 6am–11pm want a day's notice so I can plan sleep around them, and they carry no surcharge either. One condition: the round-the-clock option stays open to you as long as you turn up for it. I will get out of bed at 3am for someone who is going to be there.

FAQ

Common Questions

How are sessions conducted?

All sessions are conducted remotely via video call. I work with students nationwide across all UBE jurisdictions. Sessions run in full-hour blocks — whole hours only, no half-hours.

Sessions are pre-scheduled, not booked one at a time: we set a standing slot at the start and it is yours for the cycle. The calendar on this page is for consultations, and consultations only.

What if I need to cancel a session, or miss one?

Nothing happens — ever. No fee, no hour deducted, no cap on how often, and no reason required. I will not ask for one. You are a professional, and if you cancel or don’t appear I assume you had good cause.

What I will do after a missed session is call you within 24 hours to check that you are all right. That is not a collection call and it is not a request for an explanation. Managing remote teams at TurboTax Live taught me that someone disappearing off a calendar is occasionally a sign that something has gone badly wrong and nobody has noticed yet. For the same reason I ask you to name an emergency contact when we begin — used only if something happens during a session, or if I can’t reach you and have real cause for concern. Giving me one is optional and declining changes nothing. Agreement §7

I know this is an odd thing for a bar tutor to ask. It is, and I would rather say so than let you wonder about it. This is the one place on this site where I will ask you to take something on trust. I have spent years managing people remotely, I have made the call after someone went quiet, and it turned out to matter often enough that I will not run a practice any other way. That is a rule I hold for myself, not a test I am setting for you. Give me a name or don’t — it changes nothing about your terms, your hours, or how I work with you.

None of this is new. It is not a policy invented for a website. It is how I have worked for years, and it is one of the things you are welcome to ask my references about — they can tell you what actually happened when they had to cancel on me.

Do I need to use a specific bar review course?

No. I work with students regardless of what (if any) commercial bar review they're using. My tutoring and tools complement any existing preparation — or can serve as your primary preparation if you prefer a more personalized approach.

What if I've already failed the bar exam?

Many of my most successful outcomes have been with repeat takers. Failing the bar doesn't mean you can't pass it — it usually means the approach needs to change, not the effort. I start with a diagnostic review of your prior attempt to identify what went wrong and build from there.

What does the free consultation include?

A candid conversation about where you are, what you need, and whether I'm the right fit. I'll give you my honest assessment — including if I think you'd be better served by a different type of preparation. There's no obligation and no sales pitch.

Do you offer accommodations for students with disabilities?

Absolutely — accessibility is central to everything I build. All of my tools are designed with ADA accommodations as a core feature. I also help students navigate the accommodation request process with their jurisdiction's bar examiners.

What about cost?

No “call for a quote.” There is one thing to buy: the Full Prep Package, $2,000–$5,000 depending on hours, with Bar Exam Command Center access and the pass guarantee included rather than sold on top. There is no per-session option and no smaller way to start — paying only for sessions you have already had is what makes that safe to say yes to. The three tiers, in full →

How does payment work?

You pay for sessions after you have them, not before. $500 is due when you start — it opens the Command Center immediately and counts against your first hours. After that each session is invoiced once it has been delivered, until you reach your package price. You never owe more than that price, and you never pay for an hour you haven’t had.

You’ll also keep a card on file in Square. That protects me, not you, and I would rather say so than dress it up: it means I am never chasing an invoice instead of teaching. You enter it into Square yourself — I never see the number. When it is charged, and why I carry the risk →

What happens once I enroll?

Before our first session, you complete and return a diagnostic exam. I send back a full, item-by-item score report and a personalized study plan — at no charge — so our very first hour goes straight at your real weaknesses instead of warming up. No fluff, no generic syllabus.

What if I want to stop, or defer?

You stop by telling me. Your sessions are pre-booked into a standing weekly slot, so there is nothing to stop booking — instead you send one message saying you’re done, and I release everything still on your calendar. No form, no cutoff to beat, no explanation owed. Going quiet costs you nothing either — there are no no-show charges here — but your slot stays held in your name, and I will keep ringing to check you are all right. One line spares us both that. Come once, decide I’m not for you, and you’re out one hour. If you have paid more than you have used, the balance comes back on request within 5 business days.

Deferral is separate, also no questions asked, and unbounded: if life means you need to sit a later exam — whenever that turns out to be — the hours you haven’t used and your Command Center access wait for you. How stopping and deferring meet the pass guarantee →

What’s the catch? Why is all the risk on you?

Nothing, but you are right to ask — and “trust me” is not an answer, so here is the actual one.

Risk should sit with whoever is better placed to carry it, and between the two of us that isn’t close. I have an admission, a teaching appointment, and a practice that survives a bad month. You have one exam, one timeline, and a career waiting on one result. Putting the financial risk of my turning out to be the wrong fit onto you would be backwards. So I don’t.

You can check the first half of that yourself, which is the point of saying it: my New York admission is public record, my Fall 2026 Hofstra course is in the University’s public class schedule right now (LAW 3795, CRN 94115), and the whole agreement is published before you pay a cent.

What if we end up in a dispute?

Worth knowing before you pay rather than after. Disputes go to individual arbitration instead of a jury, and you agree not to join a class action. That is a genuine right you are giving up, and I would rather say so plainly than let you find it in a clause later.

What sits on the other side of it: I pay the arbitration fees, all of them. The hearing runs by video, or no further from you than the federal district where you live. Small claims court stays open to either of us, and anything that does belong in court goes to your home courts — which binds me the same way it binds you. Before any of that, we just talk: thirty days to resolve it directly, a required first step rather than a suggestion. Agreement §18 · Terms §12
