• How much does it cost to hire Brant for a appellate case?

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

• Does Brant offer a free consultation?

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

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

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

  Brant 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 — Brant 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 Brant?

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

• Is Brant accepting new appellate clients right now?

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