Benefits To Contingency Fees

Most personal injury attorneys will handle a case on a contingent fee basis meaning that they are paid as a percentage of the total amount of money recovered. The great benefit to you as the client in a contingent fee arrangement is that you don’t have to pay any money to the attorney upfront, so it costs you nothing in advance to hire the lawyer. The attorney is paid as a percentage of the total amount recovered and that percentage varies depending on the total amount that the attorney recoveries for you and the stage in the case at which the money is recovered. If the attorney is unable to recover any money for you for whatever reasons, you don’t owe the attorney anything.
