Before taking you on as a client, an attorney will determine whether you are a viable client for them to take on. In other words, they will weigh the challenge of the vehicle accident case against the potential rewards.
Since most attorneys for vehicle accidents are paid a percentage, some won’t accept cases for auto accidents where the settlement amount is relatively small. Every accident attorney has overhead costs, after all, and they may feel that the investment is not enough to make the case worthwhile.
