Sahil's primary office is at 815 Paulson Cir, Menlo Park, CA, 94025-3680. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Sahil for a consumer case?

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

• Does Sahil offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do consumer cases in California typically take?

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

• Can Sahil take my case if I'm outside Menlo Park?

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

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

• Is Sahil accepting new consumer clients right now?

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