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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Anu for a environmental case?

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

• Does Anu offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do environmental cases in California typically take?

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

• Can Anu take my case if I'm outside Lafayette?

  Anu 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 — Anu 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 Anu?

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

• Is Anu accepting new environmental clients right now?

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