FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they take a percentage of the amount recovered from the defendant. The percentage typically ranges from 33% to 40%, but we have seen some attorneys negotiate contingency agreements as high as 60%.

Your personal injury claim may be going to court if the other party does not agree to settle your claim. This could be because they do not believe you are entitled to the amount of compensation you are seeking, or because they do not believe that the accident was their fault. If the two parties cannot come to an agreement, then the case may have to be decided in court.

A personal injury lawyer handles cases involving physical or psychological injury caused by the negligence or intentional harm of another person, company, government agency, or other entity. Common types of personal injury cases include car accidents, slip and fall accidents, and defective product cases.

It is best to contact a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible after an accident or injury. This will ensure that you have the best chance of getting the compensation you deserve. The at fault party’s insurance company has a whole team of people working against you as soon as they find out about your claim. Shouldn’t you have someone working on your side?

The amount of a personal injury settlement depends on the specifics of the case, such as the severity of the injury, medical bills, lost wages, and other damages. It is best to consult with an experienced personal injury lawyer who can review your case and advise you on what a fair settlement amount should be.
