• How much does it cost to hire Mikael for a civil rights case?

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

• Does Mikael offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do civil rights cases in District of Columbia typically take?

  Simple civil rights 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. Mikael gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Mikael take my case if I'm outside Washington?

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

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

• Is Mikael accepting new civil rights clients right now?

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