s is customary with most law firms handling similar cases, our fees are contingent upon obtaining a settlement or a judgment. If there is no recovery (due to such things as no insurance on behalf of the person who caused the damages for example) then we write off the fees and the costs and the client owes us nothing.

For example, the fine print often reverts the fee to traditional percentages (or more) if the case ends up in litigation or does not settle within an unreasonably short period of time..  The ability to achieve an excellent result, coordinate medical expenses, and properly resolve or avoid medical liens is tremendously more important to a client’s bottom line than the inducement of a “discount” fee. In our view, for legal work especially, the adage of “you get what you pay for” could not ring more true.

With that said, however, we do recognize that some clients cannot be fully compensated for their injuries due to a variety of factors, including the fact that the at-fault party may not have sufficient insurance coverage or the financial ability to pay the value of the claim. Under those circumstances, fee reductions are often and generously made.
