Personal Injury Lawyer Frequently Asked Questions

Clients often have important questions about what hiring a personal injury lawyer involves. The following addresses to questions that come up again and again:

How much does it cost to work with a personal injury lawyer?

Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, which means legal fees only apply if you win. Typically, the attorney's fee is spelled out clearly in your fee agreement. This arrangement makes hiring an attorney affordable to people at all financial levels.

How long does a personal injury case typically take?

There's no single answer depending on whether liability is disputed. Simple claims can resolve in under a year, while complex litigation can last considerably longer. A personal injury lawyer will set honest expectations based on what they see in your claim.

What compensation can I recover with a personal injury lawyer?

The compensation available to you may include non-economic damages such as pain and suffering. Some damages have a clear dollar amount — future medical expenses and ongoing care. Other types of compensation compensate for the impact on your quality of life. Where gross negligence is proven, punitive damages can be sought.

Do I have to go to trial if I work with a personal injury lawyer?

A large percentage of injury claims resolve through negotiation without court appearances. Even so, legal counsel must be fully prepared to litigate because that readiness often drives better settlements. Should litigation become necessary, your attorney will prepare you thoroughly.

What should I do immediately after getting hurt?

First and most importantly, get evaluated by a doctor right away. Even when injuries seem minor, some injuries don't appear immediately. Following your initial evaluation, document the scene and reach out to legal counsel before speaking with any insurance adjuster.
