Generally at 9am.  Calling before is often rude...but also, not very effective.  Here many in work in NYC...so they are enroute to work/on train and can't take calls.  Worst time you can reach someone is when they are on way to work/running late/trying to get their day off to good start...and boom, you interupt them.  2nd worst is when they are preparing or having dinner.  Actually, those may be a tie.

It depends on my clients' schedule and their preferred method of communication for local clients. If it is a client in a different time zone, I try to establish early on the best time to call. Weekend calls are made only an as needed basis if text or email don't suffice. I will take incoming calls when possible on the weekends.
