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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Elliot for a insurance case?

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

• Does Elliot offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do insurance cases in Minnesota typically take?

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

• Can Elliot take my case if I'm outside Minneapolis?

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

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

• Is Elliot accepting new insurance clients right now?

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