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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Platon for a general case?

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

• Does Platon offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do general cases in Virginia typically take?

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

• Can Platon take my case if I'm outside Alexandria?

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

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

• Is Platon accepting new general clients right now?

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