Damien's primary office is at Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, Suite 2500, Toronto, ON, M5J 2T7. 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 Damien usually go, from the moment you request a consult to the day representation begins.

Damien 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 Damien for a entertainment case?

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

• Does Damien offer a free consultation?

  Damien charges for the initial consult; that fee is credited toward representation if you retain Damien's office. Some entertainment attorneys offer free consults — check Damien'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. Damien gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

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

  Damien evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Damien'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 Damien?

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

• Is Damien accepting new entertainment clients right now?

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