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

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

• How much does it cost to hire Venus for a general case?

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

• Does Venus offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do general cases in California typically take?

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

• Can Venus take my case if I'm outside Los Angeles?

  Venus 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 — Venus 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 Venus?

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

• Is Venus accepting new general clients right now?

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