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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Sharia for a discrimination case?

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

• Does Sharia offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do discrimination cases in Oregon typically take?

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

• Can Sharia take my case if I'm outside Salem?

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

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

• Is Sharia accepting new discrimination clients right now?

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