Umar's primary office is at 1 Seneca Street, Buffalo, NY, 14203. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Umar for a aviation case?

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

• Does Umar offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do aviation cases in New York typically take?

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

• Can Umar take my case if I'm outside Buffalo?

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

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

• Is Umar accepting new aviation clients right now?

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