Welcome to Bourassa Law Group! My name is Isabella Ferreira, and I’m proud to be part of this dynamic team. I began my journey with the firm as a receptionist and have since transitioned to a role as a legal assistant.
My professional growth at Bourassa Law Group has been a testament to my commitment and dedication. Drawing on my experience, I’ve cultivated strong communication skills, a solid work ethic, and a knack for creative problem-solving.
Beyond the legal world, my life has been enriched by my passion for soccer. Having played the sport for 16 years, I’ve learned the value of teamwork and effective communication—traits that seamlessly integrate into my professional life.
Outside of work, I find joy in spending time with my loved ones and indulging in the pleasures of good food. Whether it’s exploring new restaurants or sharing a home-cooked meal, these moments are the essence of what makes life beautiful.
Photography is another love of mine, particularly film photography. Capturing moments through the lens allows me to express creativity and appreciate the artistry in everyday life.
Thank you for allowing me to share a glimpse of who I am. I’m excited to contribute my skills and experiences to the success of Bourassa Law Group and look forward to serving our clients with dedication and passion.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
A personal injury lawsuit is a legal action taken by an individual who has been injured due to the negligence or wrongful act of another party. The lawsuit seeks compensation for the damages suffered, including medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other losses.
Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they take a percentage of the amount recovered from the defendant. There really is no standard fee. 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.
They can include the following:
- Slip and Fall Accidents
- Car Accidents
- Product Liability
- Dog Bites/Animal Attacks
- Defamation of Character
- Wrongful Death Claims
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?
