FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The amount of money a personal injury lawyer gets from a settlement depends on the type of fee arrangement that has been agreed upon between the lawyer and the client. Generally, personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case. The percentage typically ranges from 33% to 40%, but we have seen some attorneys negotiate contingency agreements as high as 60%.
There are many reasons why a personal injury lawyer may not take your case. It could be that the lawyer does not specialize in the type of injury you have, or that the lawyer does not feel confident in their ability to win the case. It could also be that the lawyer does not believe that the case is worth pursuing, or that the lawyer does not think they will be able to recover enough money to make it worth their time. Additionally, the lawyer may feel that there is not enough evidence to prove your case.
Yes, you can fire your personal injury lawyer. However, you should be sure to review the terms of your contract with the lawyer to ensure that there are no penalties for doing so. You should also make sure that you have a clear understanding of any fees that may be owed to the lawyer for their services before terminating the relationship.
Personal injury compensation is calculated based on a variety of factors, including the severity of the injury, the extent of any medical expenses and lost income, the impact on quality of life, and other damages such as pain and suffering. The amount of compensation awarded in a personal injury case will depend on the facts and circumstances of each individual case.
Personal injury claims can take a long time to resolve because of the complexity of the case and the amount of evidence that needs to be gathered. In addition, insurance companies may try to delay the process in order to reduce their liability. If you feel that your case is taking too long, it is important to speak with your attorney about your concerns.
