How much will a lawyer charge for handling my case?

Personal Injury lawyers work on contingency -- meaning they only get paid if they win your case.

The typical contingency fee ranges from 33.3% to 40% of the settlement or court award. This percentage can vary based on factors like case complexity, whether the case settles before or after a lawsuit is filed, and whether it goes to trial.

Aksidente.com is not a law firm and is not party to any client-attorney relationship.

Why do I need an attorney for my accident or injury?

Accidents can be expensive, debilitating, and can impact your life and future negatively. That's what insurance is for. But insurance companies don't have your best interests in mind -- they want to save their company as much money as possible, and pay you as little as possible. This can be a huge disadvantage to you, especially if your injuries are complex and require major and continuing medical treatments, cause disability, or lead to financial ruin, and emotional distress.

Having an attorney with expertise in personal injury law can navigate the complicated insurance landscape with skill and increase your chances of successfully getting compensated for what your injury deserves. More importantly, having an attorney will allow you to recover without the stress and overwhelm.
