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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Ashok for a immigration case?

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

• Does Ashok offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do immigration cases in District of Columbia typically take?

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

• Can Ashok take my case if I'm outside Washington?

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

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

• Is Ashok accepting new immigration clients right now?

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