Choosing a personal injury lawyer
Most personal injury lawyers work on contingency, so read the fee percentage and how case costs are handled if you lose. Ask how many cases they have taken to trial rather than settled, and who pays for experts. Be wary of anyone who guarantees an outcome.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a personal injury lawyer cost?
Typically a percentage of any recovery (a contingency fee), often with case expenses deducted. Ask for the exact percentage and how expenses are treated in writing.
Is there a deadline to bring a claim?
Yes. Every jurisdiction has a limitation period, and some claims against public bodies have much shorter notice requirements. Speak to a lawyer promptly.
