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

Sendil 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 Sendil for a general case?

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

• Does Sendil offer a free consultation?

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

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

• Can Sendil take my case if I'm outside Johnston?

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

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

• Is Sendil accepting new general clients right now?

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