• How much does it cost to hire Alena for a animal law case?

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

• Does Alena offer a free consultation?

• How long do animal law cases in Michigan typically take?

  Simple animal law 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. Alena gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Alena take my case if I'm outside Detroit?

  Alena is licensed in Michigan. Matters governed by Michigan law are the natural fit. Out-of-state matters are handled case-by-case, sometimes with local co-counsel. Ask during intake — Alena 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 Alena?

  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. Alena will filter what matters — over-preparing at intake is always cheaper than needing a second meeting.

• Is Alena accepting new animal law clients right now?

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