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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Devi for a government case?

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

• Does Devi offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do government cases in Maryland typically take?

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

• Can Devi take my case if I'm outside Bethesda?

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

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

• Is Devi accepting new government clients right now?

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