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

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

• Does Ike offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do civil rights cases in New York 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. Ike gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Ike take my case if I'm outside Rosedale?

  Ike 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 — Ike 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 Ike?

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

• Is Ike accepting new civil rights clients right now?

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