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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Marcus for a construction case?

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

• Does Marcus offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do construction cases in Arizona typically take?

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

• Can Marcus take my case if I'm outside Phoenix?

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

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

• Is Marcus accepting new construction clients right now?

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