• How much does it cost to hire Rigel for a discrimination case?

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

• Does Rigel offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do discrimination cases in Ohio typically take?

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

• Can Rigel take my case if I'm outside Cleveland?

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

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

• Is Rigel accepting new discrimination clients right now?
