Mao's primary office is at 1 Address Unknown, Los Angeles, CA, 90010. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

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

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

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

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

• Does Mao offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do bankruptcy cases in California 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. Mao gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

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

  Mao 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 — Mao 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 Mao?

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

• Is Mao accepting new bankruptcy clients right now?

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