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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Burk for a general case?

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

• Does Burk offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do general cases in California typically take?

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

• Can Burk take my case if I'm outside Northridge?

  Burk 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 — Burk 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 Burk?

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

• Is Burk accepting new general clients right now?

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