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

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

• Does Dikran offer a free consultation?

• Can Dikran take my case if I'm outside Los Angeles?

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

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

• Is Dikran accepting new construction clients right now?

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