Due Diligence
Your Year of White-Glove Legal & Paperwork Support
You’ve spent your whole pregnancy making the big decisions. Let me handle everything else. For an entire year, I act as your attorney — managing the paperwork, the appeals, the accommodations, and every piece of red tape that stands between you and a protected, supported perinatal experience.
View Enrollment OptionsYou’ve Done the Research. Now Delegate.
You Know the Value of Delegating. Imagine the Mom You Can Be When You Delegate the Paperwork.
The perinatal period is not a time for paperwork. And yet — here we are.
You already know the system doesn’t make this easy. Workplace accommodations that should be automatic aren’t. Insurance denials that shouldn’t happen do. Hospital bills arrive weeks after your baby, and deciphering them requires a law degree (which most people don’t have, and shouldn’t need).
As a new or expectant mom — and a professional who can’t afford to drop everything — you’re managing your career, your pregnancy, your family, and a mountain of bureaucratic complexity that nobody warned you about.
Due Diligence exists because you deserve to have someone in your corner who actually knows this terrain. Not a service that sends you a template. Not a chatbot with a disclaimer. An attorney — your attorney — who handles it.
What’s Included
Everything, for One Year
This is a retainer relationship — not a package with a checklist. It’s ongoing, responsive, and built around whatever the perinatal year actually throws at you.
01 — Core Service
Full Pregnancy Paperwork Management
I handle every form, every filing, every communication that requires legal knowledge. Workplace accommodation requests, FMLA documentation, short-term disability claims, hospital billing disputes — it’s mine to manage.
02 — Core Service
Insurance Claims & Appeals
Denials don’t have to be the last word. I draft and submit appeals, correspond with insurers on your behalf, and navigate the appeals process with the same thoroughness I’d bring to any legal matter — because that’s exactly what it is.
03 — Core Service
Workplace Accommodations Support
Pumping space, modified duties, leave documentation — your employer has legal obligations, and you have legal rights. I make sure both are clearly understood and properly documented throughout your pregnancy and postpartum return.
04 — Core Service
Your Family’s Estate Plan
A fully customized, attorney-drafted estate plan — will, trust, healthcare directive, and durable power of attorney — executed and notarized. Built around your family’s specific circumstances, including provisions for your children. From birth plan to estate plan.
05 — Access
Unlimited Attorney Office Hours
Throughout your retainer year, you have unlimited access to me during office hours. Bring your questions, your documents, your “is this normal?” moments. My hourly rate is $300 — this access is included.
06 — Access
Emergency Access — Including During Labor
If something comes up in the moment — a provider pushing back on your birth plan, a consent form that doesn’t look right, a situation that can’t wait — you have a way to reach me. Having an attorney available during labor is not something you can replicate on demand. This is it.
07 — Bonus
Birth Rights Course Access
Full access to the BRC — my flagship course on understanding, asserting, and protecting your birth rights under federal law. Yours to work through at your own pace throughout the year.
08 — Bonus
Monthly Live Calls
You’re included on every live monthly call for the duration of your retainer. Ask questions, hear what other moms are navigating, and stay connected to the community and the legal updates that matter to you.
Who’s in Your Corner
A Litigator Who Knows How to Fight — and When To.
I didn’t come to this work from behind a desk.
Before founding Your Legal Doula, I practiced across multiple areas of civil, criminal, and administrative law — in courtrooms, before agencies, through every layer of procedural red tape the legal system can produce. I know how institutions operate when they think no one is paying close attention. I know where the leverage is.
But I also know this terrain personally.
I navigated my own pregnancy through both the midwifery model of care — paying out of pocket — and the hospital system, with insurance, an unplanned C-section, and a NICU stay I never saw coming. I’ve done my own insurance appeals. More than one. And I am, by most accounts, relentless about it. I don’t accept a denial as a final answer. I don’t go gently into that good night.
What that means for you: even though we’re not walking into a courtroom together, you are not handing your paperwork to someone who will take no for an answer. You’re working with an attorney who has spent years learning exactly how far institutions will push — and exactly how to push back.
In Practice
What This Looks Like in Practice
Every retainer is different because every pregnancy is different. But here’s a sense of the kinds of things I handle for Due Diligence clients:
- Drafting and submitting a formal accommodation request to your employer for a modified work schedule or remote work during your third trimester
- Appealing an insurance denial for a prenatal test your OB ordered — and winning
- Reviewing and disputing a postpartum hospital bill that itemized charges you never agreed to
- Preparing your FMLA paperwork so there are no gaps in your leave documentation
- Drafting a letter to your HR department about your right to a private pumping space when they’ve been slow to provide one
- Walking through your birth plan from a legal rights lens so you know exactly what you can and can’t be required to consent to
- Responding to a surprise balance bill from an out-of-network provider in your in-network delivery
Included With Your Retainer
More Than Paperwork
Birth Rights Course (BRC)
My flagship course teaches you to understand, assert, and protect your birth rights — grounded in federal law and the protections that apply to everyone within the U.S. Yours in full for the duration of your retainer.
Live Monthly Q&A Calls
Join the community and stay current. Every month, I host a live call open to all active clients. Bring your questions, your wins, and your “wait, is this legal?” moments. These calls are real, unscripted, and genuinely useful.
Your Attorney of Record
This isn’t a coaching relationship. You have an actual attorney — Andi Orwoll, Esq., NV Bar #14596 — acting on your behalf. That distinction matters legally, ethically, and practically when things get complicated.
Is This You?
Who Due Diligence Is — and Isn’t — Built For
This is for you if…
- You’re a professional and your time is genuinely limited
- You’d rather delegate than DIY your way through legal paperwork
- You want someone handling this who actually knows what they’re doing
- You’re expecting (or recently postpartum) and already feeling the weight of the system
- You live in Nevada and want the full benefit of an attorney-client relationship
- You believe you deserve more support than the system was designed to give you
This probably isn’t the right fit if…
- You’re located outside of Nevada
- You’re looking for general legal information rather than someone to act on your behalf
- You need litigation support (this is a transactional/administrative retainer)
- You prefer a DIY approach and just need the right resources
Not in Nevada yet, or looking for something more accessible? The Birth Rights Course is a great starting point for anyone navigating the perinatal system.
From Birth Plan to Estate Plan
Your Baby Deserves a Legal Foundation. So Does Your Family.
The moment you become a parent, the legal stakes change.
Suddenly there are questions that didn’t exist before. Who raises your child if something happens to you? Who makes medical decisions on your behalf? Where does your home — your savings, your legacy — actually go?
Most people know they should have these documents. Almost nobody has them, because getting them done is expensive, time-consuming, and easy to postpone.
Due Diligence takes care of that too.
Included in your retainer is a fully customized estate plan — not a template you fill out yourself, not a download from a legal forms website. A real, attorney-drafted estate plan built around your family’s specific circumstances.
This is the kind of estate plan that typically runs $7,500 when done properly, through an attorney, for a family with children. It’s included because if we’re protecting your perinatal year, we’re protecting all of it.
The Real Cost of Doing This Piecemeal
What You’d Pay À La Carte
If you hired attorneys separately for each piece of what Due Diligence covers, here’s what the market would charge you:
*This is assuming you can even find an attorney to take on just one of these projects. Many firms won’t take you on for less than a $15,000 retainer. Most attorneys are not educated on perinatal issues, and even fewer understand what a neurologically vulnerable time it is — or will serve you accordingly.
You’ve seen what these services cost piecemeal. You don’t want the headache of finding 7 different professionals to handle what rightfully feels like one never-ending mess. Here’s what Due Diligence costs — all of it, for a year, with an attorney who actually knows this world.

A Note on What You Can Expect
This retainer is built on a genuine attorney-client relationship — which means I take my obligations to you as seriously as any other legal engagement. You’ll always know what I’m working on, why, and what the realistic outcomes look like. I don’t do vague. I don’t do empty reassurances. What I do is show up, do the work, and make sure you understand every step of it.
Questions
A Few Things People Ask
Why is this Nevada-only?
Because Due Diligence is an actual legal representation relationship, I can only take clients in states where I’m licensed to practice. Right now, that’s Nevada. My intention is to expand as I grow — but I will never take on clients I can’t fully and ethically serve.
When does the year begin?
Your retainer begins on the date of enrollment and runs for 12 months. There’s no “right” time in your pregnancy to start — earlier enrollment just means more of your pregnancy is covered.
What if my needs are different from what’s described here?
That’s exactly why this is a retainer and not a package. You bring whatever comes up, and we figure it out together. The situations described above are illustrative, not a complete list.
What if I’m already postpartum? Can I still enroll?
Yes. The postpartum period has its own significant legal and paperwork landscape — return-to-work accommodations, billing disputes, insurance follow-up, and more. Due Diligence covers the full perinatal year, whether that’s primarily prenatal, primarily postpartum, or both.
Does this cover litigation or going to court?
Due Diligence is a transactional and administrative retainer — meaning I handle paperwork, correspondence, claims, and filings. If a situation escalates to litigation, we’ll discuss what that path looks like and whether a referral or additional engagement is the right next step.
I had a call with Andi already. How do I move forward?
You’re in the right place. Select your enrollment option above and you’ll receive a retainer agreement and onboarding information within one business day.
You’ve Already Done the Hard Part.

Andi’s 1:1 Birth Plan Blueprint call walks you through your options and helps you start constructing your plan at a lower price point. 1 hour, $250 — less than you’d pay for most attorneys in an initial consultation — and it’s fully creditable toward any future service.
