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

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

• Does Sergio offer a free consultation?

  Sergio charges for the initial consult; that fee is credited toward representation if you retain Sergio's office. Some tax attorneys offer free consults — check Sergio'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. Sergio gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Sergio take my case if I'm outside Sacramento?

  Sergio 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 — Sergio 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 Sergio?

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

• Is Sergio accepting new tax clients right now?

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