When you’re seeking compensation after an injury, you might be worried about the cost of hiring a personal injury lawyer. You’re already facing hefty expenses, so you don’t want to pay for a lawyer if you’re not sure you’ll win. Fortunately, that’s exactly what contingency fees are for.
A contingency fee means that what you pay is contingent on (depends on) whether your claim is successful. Instead of paying a set amount, you’ll pay your attorney a set percentage of the compensation you receive. That way, you won’t be hit with any unexpected expenses, and you pay nothing if we don’t win.
