• How much does it cost to hire Karinna for a appellate case?

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

• Does Karinna offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do appellate cases in Maryland typically take?

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

• Can Karinna take my case if I'm outside Baltimore?

  Karinna 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 — Karinna 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 Karinna?

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

• Is Karinna accepting new appellate clients right now?

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