When you call our law firm for advice about your car accident, there are no fees or costs until and unless we are able to get a settlement or verdict in your favor.
During the initial call, we will get some basic information about your case to determine whether we think we will be able to help you with your case. There is no charge for the call and you are not required to hire our law firm if you do call.
If we think that we will be able to help you with your case, we will schedule time for a longer discussion with one of our lawyers to go over your case in greater detail. At the end of the discussion, we will map out a strategy for how we will go about handling your case to reach the best result possible for you. If we are both comfortable working together, we will have paperwork for you to sign to hire us as your lawyers. If either of us decide that we do not want to work together, then there is no charge for the meeting.
We do not charge any upfront fees or costs. We advance all of the expenses that are required to handle your case properly to a successful conclusion, but must be paid those back at the end of the case.
We work on a contingency basis – this means that we only get paid if there is a verdict or settlement in your favor. We charge one-third (33-1/3%) of the gross settlement, which is the standard fee structure in our field. This also means that we are motivated to see that you get the largest possible settlement because when the amount of the settlement increases, so does the amount of the fee that we receive.
If we are not successful in getting you a settlement, we do not receive anything and we do not get reimbursed the money we spent on your case.
Our fee structure is designed to reduce the risk and expense to you – and allow you to focus on recovering from your injuries and getting back to living your life.
