Dina's primary office is at 2 United Nations Plz # Dc 512, New York, NY, 10017-4403. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Dina for a international case?

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

• Does Dina offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do international cases in New York typically take?

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

• Can Dina take my case if I'm outside New York?

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

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

• Is Dina accepting new international clients right now?

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