Hiring a law firm for wrongful death can vary in cost depending on whether the case is settled without a lawsuit, or if a lawsuit is necessary. Rather than sending a bill or requiring an upfront legal fee, most attorneys charge a contingency fee which is paid at the end of the case using a percentage of the total amount of money recovered.
Accordingly, a wrongful death attorney’s fee is usually contingent on success in obtaining a settlement or verdict on your behalf. At Bringardner Injury Law Firm, if we do not recover money for a wrongful death case, we do not get paid a legal fee.
