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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Archibald for a aviation case?

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

• Does Archibald offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do aviation cases in Maryland typically take?

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

• Can Archibald take my case if I'm outside Hanover?

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

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

• Is Archibald accepting new aviation clients right now?

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