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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Christi for a discrimination case?

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

• Does Christi offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do discrimination cases in New York typically take?

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

• Can Christi take my case if I'm outside Brewster?

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

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

• Is Christi accepting new discrimination clients right now?

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