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

Diep 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 Diep for a entertainment case?

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

• Does Diep offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do entertainment cases in California 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. Diep gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Diep take my case if I'm outside Los Angeles?

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

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

• Is Diep accepting new entertainment clients right now?

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