• How much does it cost to hire Natascha for a tax case?

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

• Does Natascha offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do tax cases in California typically take?

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

• Can Natascha take my case if I'm outside Irvine?

  Natascha 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 — Natascha 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 Natascha?

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

• Is Natascha accepting new tax clients right now?

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