Aitan's primary office is at 1392 Eglinton Avenue West, Toronto, ON, M6C 2E4. 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 Aitan usually go, from the moment you request a consult to the day representation begins.

Aitan 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 Aitan for a consumer case?

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

• Does Aitan offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do consumer cases in this state 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. Aitan gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Aitan take my case if I'm outside the area?

  Aitan evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Aitan's regular jurisdictions, the intake call will confirm whether direct representation or a referral makes more sense.

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Aitan?

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

• Is Aitan accepting new consumer clients right now?

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