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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Federico for a bankruptcy case?

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

• Does Federico offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do bankruptcy cases in this state typically take?

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

• Can Federico take my case if I'm outside the area?

  Federico evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Federico's regular jurisdictions, the intake call will confirm whether direct representation or a referral makes more sense.

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Federico?

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

• Is Federico accepting new bankruptcy clients right now?

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