• How much does it cost to hire Bao-Long for a appellate case?

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

• Can Bao-Long take my case if I'm outside Houston?

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

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

• Is Bao-Long accepting new appellate clients right now?

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