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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Divya for a civil rights case?

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

• Does Divya offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do civil rights cases in California typically take?

  Simple civil rights 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. Divya gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

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

  Divya 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 — Divya 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 Divya?

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

• Is Divya accepting new civil rights clients right now?

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