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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Dao for a tax case?

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

• Does Dao offer a free consultation?

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

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

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

• Can Dao take my case if I'm outside New York?

  Dao 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 — Dao 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 Dao?

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

• Is Dao accepting new tax clients right now?

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