• How much does it cost to hire Farhat for a citizenship case?

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

• Does Farhat offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do citizenship cases in Maryland typically take?

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

• Can Farhat take my case if I'm outside North Potomac?

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

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

• Is Farhat accepting new citizenship clients right now?

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