Our Frequently Asked Questions

How do our free consultations work? Toggle

Once you submit your contact information on our website, we will have an initial meeting via phone to discuss the details of your claim and your options. You will not be charged for the initial meeting.

How do you pay your lawyer if you decide to hire us? Toggle

We do not charge any legal fees until your case is resolved. Our fees are contingency-based and we do not get paid unless you receive a settlement.

What are contingency fees? Toggle

Contingency fees are based on a percentage of the settlement you receive.

How long does it take to settle a personal injury claim? Toggle

It generally takes anywhere from 1 to 5 years to settle a personal injury claim. If your claim is open longer, it usually means the injuries are more severe and you may receive a higher settlement.

How do we handle communications with insurance companies and other parties on your behalf? Toggle

Once we are hired, we manage all interactions with external parties, including insurance companies, opposing counsel, and other organizations, so you don't have to. This approach allows you to focus on your recovery while we work to secure the benefits and compensation you deserve.

What should I bring with me to my free personal injury legal consultation? Toggle

Please bring any details you have of the accident, insurance company information, the police file number, photos, and your identification.
