• How much does it cost to hire Aubrey for a civil rights case?

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

• Can Aubrey take my case if I'm outside Chicago?

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

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