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

• How much does it cost to hire Providence for a litigation case?

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

• Does Providence offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do litigation cases in New York typically take?

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

• Can Providence take my case if I'm outside Albany?

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

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

• Is Providence accepting new litigation clients right now?

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