• How much does it cost to hire Adrine for a employment case?

  Cost depends on the type of matter, the fee model (contingency, flat, hourly), and how contested the case becomes. Adrine walks through the likely range during the consult so there are no surprises.

• Does Adrine offer a free consultation?

  Adrine charges for the initial consult; that fee is credited toward representation if you retain Adrine's office. Some employment attorneys offer free consults — check Adrine's current terms during booking.

• How long do employment cases in California typically take?

  Simple employment matters can wrap in a few weeks; disputed cases can run 6–18 months from intake to resolution, longer if the matter goes to trial. Adrine gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Adrine take my case if I'm outside Encino?

  Adrine is licensed in California. Matters governed by California law are the natural fit. Out-of-state matters are handled case-by-case, sometimes with local co-counsel. Ask during intake — Adrine will tell you if the case is a fit or refer you to someone closer to your court.

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Adrine?

  Bring every document that touches the dispute: contracts, correspondence, police or medical reports, filed pleadings, invoices, photographs, insurance letters. Also bring a written timeline of what happened, in your own words. Adrine will filter what matters — over-preparing at intake is always cheaper than needing a second meeting.

• Is Adrine accepting new employment clients right now?

  Adrine's intake status shifts week to week. Submit the form; the office will confirm availability or refer the matter out.
