How an engagement works
From first call to resolution, the process is designed to give you certainty early — on strategy, on timeline, and on cost.
Free Consultation
A focused call about your situation and objectives. You leave with an honest read on your position and options — whether or not we work together.
Strategy & Scope
We map the legal path to your outcome and quote the work — flat fees where possible, transparent budgets where not.
Execution
Direct attorney work, proactive updates, and documents built to survive scrutiny. You always know where your matter stands.
The best legal work is invisible — deals that close, disputes that never mature, clients who simply never get caught off guard.David Itkin · Founder, Itkin Law
Common questions
Is the consultation really free?
Yes. The first consultation is free and carries no obligation. We use it to understand your situation, explain your options in plain language, and — if we're the right fit — quote clear pricing for the work.
Who do you represent?
Businesses and individuals alike — founders, closely held companies, and growing businesses, as well as consumers facing debt collectors and individuals in civil disputes. Most clients are in Los Angeles and greater California; we serve others remotely.
Do you offer flat fees?
For most transactional work — contracts, formations, governance packages — yes. Litigation and larger matters are scoped with a budget you approve before work begins.
How fast can we get started?
Consultations are usually scheduled within one to two business days, and most engagements start the same week.
