The important thing to know about hiring a personal injury lawyer is that there are no upfront costs. When you hire a lawyer on a contingency fee basis, you do not pay any fees unless and until you win your case. The lawyer advances all costs associated with the case. If there is a successful recovery from a settlement or verdict, then a percentage will be taken out of that.
