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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Fuad for a contracts case?

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

• Does Fuad offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do contracts cases in Illinois typically take?

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

• Can Fuad take my case if I'm outside Chicago?

  Fuad 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 — Fuad 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 Fuad?

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

• Is Fuad accepting new contracts clients right now?

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