Claudel's primary office is at 380, Saint-Antoine Ouest, Bureau 7100, Montreal, QC, H2Y 3X7. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Claudel for a entertainment case?

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

• Does Claudel offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do entertainment cases in this state typically take?

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

• Can Claudel take my case if I'm outside the area?

  Claudel evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Claudel's regular jurisdictions, the intake call will confirm whether direct representation or a referral makes more sense.

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Claudel?

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

• Is Claudel accepting new entertainment clients right now?

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