After you have been involved in an accident or have suffered an injury due to someone else\u2019s negligence, you have a lot to think about.\u00a0 You will be concerned about your medical treatment first and foremost.\u00a0 You may also be concerned about your family and how your injury will affect them and the quality of life in your home, especially if your injury has made it impossible for you to return to work.\u00a0 One of the most important concerns of anyone involved in this kind of accident is being able to afford the consequences of it.\u00a0 Do you have enough to cover your medical bills?\u00a0 Do you have enough to care for your family if you can\u2019t return to work and make a wage?<\/p>\n

Of course, you do have recourse in the form a personal injury claim.\u00a0 If you know the person who was responsible for the accident or whose actions directly caused your injury, then you can seek damages from them to cover these important costs.\u00a0 When the time comes to file a claim, though, it will be important to seek the help of a Portland abogado de lesiones personales<\/strong>.\u00a0 For many people who are already concerned about costs, the thought of taking this next step and hiring an attorney may be scary.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s ok.\u00a0 You can relax.\u00a0 The fact is that while many personal injury lawyers do work on a flat fee or hourly basis, still quite a few more can be retained based on contingency.\u00a0 A contingency fee<\/a> is essentially a fee that is paid to the attorney that represents you after a settlement has been received.\u00a0 The attorney receives a pre-determined percentage of this settlement as you agreed upon, and if the settlement is zero that means your attorney will receive zero.<\/p>\n

An average Portland personal injury lawyer will likely charge up to 33 percent as a contingency fee<\/a><\/strong> to work on your case, especially if the claim has to do with any automobile accident or basic personal injury. Now if the case is a little more complex, such as cases that involve medical practice or product liability, you could see these fees go a tad higher.<\/p>\n

Here is an example to show you how contingency fees work in the real world.\u00a0 Say you hire an attorney to assist you with your personal injury claim.\u00a0 The attorney is able to assist you to obtain a settlement of $100,000 for medical treatment costs, lost wages, and punitive damages.\u00a0 If you and the lawyer agreed to a 33.33 percent contingency fee, the lawyer will take $33,333 from the $100,000 obtained in the settlement, leaving you with a final settlement amount of $66,666.<\/p>\n

Depending on any prior agreements, the Portland abogado de lesiones personales<\/strong> that you retain to assist you may also need to be recouped for any out-of-pocket expenses that they incurred during the course of your claim.\u00a0 These expenses may include fees paid to expert witnesses, administrative costs, and travel costs.\u00a0 It will be important for you to fully discuss any contingency fee and other fees with your attorney before making any final agreement.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
