• How much does it cost to hire Hanna for a bankruptcy case?

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

• Does Hanna offer a free consultation?

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

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

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

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

  Hanna 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 — Hanna 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 Hanna?

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

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