I forgot to go back for Lae'zel, is it too late?

Long story short, I ran into Lae’zel in the cage just after we wake up on the beach in the very beginning.

I went by her and reloaded for reasons, but accidentally went a different way after that, forgot about it, & just realized she would be good to have as a Companion during combat.

I’m about to kill the goblins, and I went back for her at her previous location but she’s no longer there. Did I lose her for good, or is there still a chance?

Thanks everyone, I’m new to BG/D&D completely so apologies if this is a dumb n00b move, but I am one :)

If you missed her in the beginning, you should be able get her later when you run into the Gith patrol just before entering the mountain pass. I think it's around the inn that was attacked in the north of the map.
You have another chance to get her just before entering Act 2 if you head to the Mountain Pass. If you enter Act 2 without her, she is gone forever.
- Thank you!
  
  You can actually come back for her during act 2 too. If you move on to act 3 then it's too late. There are two different ways to get to the mountain pass. She's at the top route. Be ready for a fight. ;)
  
  Edit: there's a big fight in act 2 that is possibly the point of no return for going back. They tell you that it will have several effects on the world before you start it.
I did something similar, ran into her cage, convinced to tieflings to go away but I didn't realize at first you can use a ranged weapon to free her (yeah I'm that noob lol) so I went away to search for crates to climb on. As soon as I left the area the quest was completed, she was no longer there.

As I understand it, she freed herself and you will find her quite later on to join you (after mountain pass) - assuming you convinced to tieflings to not kill her, in that case she's not lost, you'll have another chance.

I personally reloaded a previous save to free her myself.
- It's just before the mountain pass, not after.
- I didn’t convince them though, after the reload to before ever seeing her at all, I went a different way (on accident), never went by her at all, and didn’t think to go back by her right away.
Check the journal for information. Might give you a clue.
- Thanks! I did that, but I must have missed it. I’ll check again. :)
  
  I did the same, my journal has her under completed quests, and says I missed her
If you're still in act 1 you should still be able to get her. But I can't be certain I guess
