Many survivors of loved ones who pass away due to the negligence of others have concerns about the cost of hiring a skilled wrongful death lawyer, but you needn’t be. Reputable wrongful death lawyers generally work on contingency, which means their pay is contingent upon (or based upon) their ability to obtain a settlement or court award. If so, your wrongful death lawyer will receive a prearranged percentage of your settlement amount (or court award if the matter goes to trial).
In other words, if your claim is unsuccessful, you won’t owe your lawyer anything. You can afford an experienced wrongful death lawyer and are well-advised to have one in your corner.
