• How much does it cost to hire Dragana for a legal case?

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

• Does Dragana offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do legal cases in Illinois typically take?

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

• Can Dragana take my case if I'm outside Bridgeview?

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

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

• Is Dragana accepting new legal clients right now?

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