• How much does it cost to hire Avril for a construction case?

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

• Does Avril offer a free consultation?

• How long do construction cases in Georgia typically take?

  Simple construction 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. Avril gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Avril take my case if I'm outside Atlanta?

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

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

• Is Avril accepting new construction clients right now?

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