How do I pay for your services?

Our law firm works on a “contingency” basis which means that we do not get paid unless you receive money via a successful verdict or settlement.  In other words, if we agree to take your case, we do not charge you anything unless you collect money.  We will pay for all of the expenses that are involved in building your case.  If you receive money due to a successful verdict or settlement, we will get our expenses back.  Then, we receive a percentage of the money awarded to you.  This percentage will be based upon an initial agreement between you and our law firm. 
This is our way of guaranteeing you that we will work hard to provide you with the best legal representation and resources available.  You will pay absolutely nothing unless you are awarded a settlement or a verdict. 

How do I know if I have a case?

If you have been injured or traumatized and believe it is the fault of someone else, you may have a personal injury case.  The injury can be caused by another person, company, another person’s property or even another person’s pet.   
If you were discriminated against at your place of employment, you may have a claim under a wide variety of laws that are designed to stop workplace discrimination.
Only an experienced attorney can determine whether or not you have a possible claim.  It is important that you act immediately to protect your rights by contacting an attorney. 

What kind of monetary compensation will I get?

Each case varies depending upon the facts and the law.  In certain cases, there are a wide variety of damages that may be available.

How soon should I file a lawsuit?

You should contact an attorney as soon as possible.  Time is of the essence when developing a strong case.  Also, there are a number of different statutes of limitations and some are much shorter than others.  If you fail to act promptly, you may forfeit your ability to file a case.   

What happens during a lawsuit?

Our lawyers will determine the facts and history of your individual case.  After inspection, our lawyers will contact the legal representation of the company or person you are filing a grievance or case against.  Every case has individual facts and circumstances, but most cases tend to settle before trial. 

What should I do if I'm ready to seek legal advice?

The most important thing to do - before doing anything else - is to contact an experienced attorney for a free consultation. Only with experienced and professional legal counsel can you truly reclaim your rights.
Remember, it is never a good idea to sign anything or give a statement without legal counsel.

What if I was partly at fault for the accident?

Most states have laws that provide people with rights despite the fact that they may be partly responsible for an accident. This is an area of personal injury law that is constantly changing.  That is why it is very important to contact an experienced law firm so that they can give you the most up to date legal advice available.
