• How much does it cost to hire Sumit for a construction case?

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

• Can Sumit take my case if I'm outside Houston?

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

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