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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Birgit for a landlord/tenant case?

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

• Does Birgit offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do landlord/tenant cases in Maryland typically take?

  Simple landlord/tenant 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. Birgit gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Birgit take my case if I'm outside Rockville?

  Birgit 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 — Birgit 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 Birgit?

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

• Is Birgit accepting new landlord/tenant clients right now?

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