How long should this process typically take from start to finish?
It varies significantly depending on complexity and preparation. On average I'd say 2-4 months for most people. The biggest delays come from incomplete documentation at the start — so getting organized early is key.

What's the biggest mistake people make when starting this process?
The most common mistake is not doing enough upfront research. People often rush into decisions without understanding all their options. I always recommend spending at least a few weeks learning the basics before making any commitments.
What credentials should I look for when hiring someone in your field?
Look for relevant professional licenses (which you can verify through your state's licensing board), active professional associations, and verifiable reviews on third-party platforms.
