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

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

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

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

• Does Solomon offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do civil rights cases in Virginia 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. Solomon gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Solomon take my case if I'm outside Norfolk?

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

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

• Is Solomon accepting new civil rights clients right now?

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