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

Angelo 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 Angelo for a consumer case?

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

• Does Angelo offer a free consultation?

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

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

• Can Angelo take my case if I'm outside New York?

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

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

• Is Angelo accepting new consumer clients right now?

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