• How much does it cost to hire Simi for a class action case?

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

• Does Simi offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do class action cases in California typically take?

  Simple class action 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. Simi gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Simi take my case if I'm outside Ontario?

  Simi 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 — Simi 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 Simi?

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

• Is Simi accepting new class action clients right now?

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