Working with a new litigation attorney should feel structured. Here's how the first two conversations with Desmond usually go, from the moment you request a consult to the day representation begins.

Desmond discusses fees during intake so the arrangement fits the matter. Contingency, hourly, and flat-fee options are all common in litigation practice — ask which fits.

• How much does it cost to hire Desmond for a litigation case?

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

• Does Desmond offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do litigation cases in this state typically take?

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

• Can Desmond take my case if I'm outside the area?

  Desmond evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Desmond's regular jurisdictions, the intake call will confirm whether direct representation or a referral makes more sense.

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

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

• Is Desmond accepting new litigation clients right now?

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