Turid's primary office is at 1600 Pioneer Tower, 888 S.W. 5th Ave., Ste. 1600, Portland, OR, 97204-2012. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Turid for a citizenship case?

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

• Does Turid offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do citizenship cases in Oregon typically take?

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

• Can Turid take my case if I'm outside Portland?

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

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

• Is Turid accepting new citizenship clients right now?

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