Attorneys give injury victims the same leverage that the insurance company has in negotiating a fair settlement. An attorney also has the knowledge to properly evaluate the value of your injury claim. The insurance company knows that an attorney can file a lawsuit on behalf of his client which adds value to the case.
Other than increasing the settlement value of your case, what else can an attorney do for you? Attorneys also help with the outstanding medical bills that accompany an injury. Attorneys can negotiate with the hospitals or healthcare provider to reduce your bills. This is a huge benefit to an injury victim because it puts more money in the pocket of the injury victim.
Finally, how and when do I pay my attorney and what if we don’t win my case? Most injury victims have an increase in expenses and are often out of work for extended periods following their accident. Most attorneys will agree to take a percentage of the settlement at the conclusion of the case. In other words, if the attorney does not collect for you he does not charge for his services. This type agreement is for the benefit of the injury victim who may be financially burdened because of his injury. Pbk (205)912-8245
