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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Karla for a immigration case?

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

• Does Karla offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do immigration cases in this state typically take?

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

• Can Karla take my case if I'm outside the area?

  Karla evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Karla's regular jurisdictions, the intake call will confirm whether direct representation or a referral makes more sense.

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Karla?

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

• Is Karla accepting new immigration clients right now?

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