Some choose to try to go it alone after suffering serious injuries because they worry about the cost of a lawyer. You need and deserve the expertise of a lawyer to help you recover damages after another party caused a catastrophic injury. You do not have to worry about affordability because catastrophic injury lawyers, like all personal injury lawyers, do not charge upfront retainers. Attorneys who work with injured victims and their families understand the financial challenges of a catastrophic injury. It’s industry standard for personal injury law firms to accept new clients on a contingent fee basis. These agreements allow your lawyer to deduct attorney fees and other costs of representation from any money you receive in a settlement or from a jury verdict in your favor.
