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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Kermit for a aviation case?

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

• Does Kermit offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do aviation cases in Alaska typically take?

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

• Can Kermit take my case if I'm outside Anchorage?

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

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

• Is Kermit accepting new aviation clients right now?

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