Most clients are worried about the cost of hiring a lawyer.
But, with prudent planning, you can pay legal fees, and in many circumstances, save yourself a great deal of money by using legal services to prevent even bigger problems. Every case is unique, and some types of cases are charged in a legally mandated manner or by custom. There are some types of cases that have standard fees. Most personal injury cases are handled on a contingency fee basis. With a contingency fee, the lawyer earns a percentage, usually one-third, of whatever is recovered for the client, plus the costs of litigating the case.
