He handles personal injury and wrongful death cases exclusively. Mr. Block represents the "Plaintiffs," people who have been injured or have lost loved ones due to the negligent or wrongful acts of others. Lance Block's representation is secured on a contingency fee basis, which means that he is not paid until a recovery is made. The fee and costs of bringing the case are deducted from the final award. This allows individuals to have access to the civil justice system without the need to finance the case themselves. If the case is not successful, the Plaintiff usually pays the attorney nothing.
