How would you like to have access to a Hartford Connecticut personal injury lawyer and not
have to pay anything out of your pocket? It may be surprising to learn that
many people do not understand that you can hire a Hartford Connecticut accident
attorney on a contingency fee basis. This means that your attorney will not
be paid unless and until you recover money damages. If there is no recovery
then you will not have to pay your Hartford Connecticut accident lawyer any money.
Additionally, most Hartford Connecticut injury attorneys will also advance the costs
necessary to develop your case. This could include such expenses as medical
records, medical reports, expert opinions, filing fees, marshall fees,
deposition fees, and any and all other expenses needed to develop your
accident or injury case. Most of these Connecticut accident lawyers will
only recover these costs if they collect money damages for you. In other
words, under this arrangement if your lawyer does not collect any money and
you would owe no legal fees and you would owe no costs.
Connecticut has a statute that covers the hiring of a lawyer under a
contingency fee arrangement. Because the fee is contingent, it is only paid
at the time the client collects money damages. If your Hartford Connecticut personal
injury lawyer is able to collect money damages for you the lawyer would be
paid a percentage of the recovery, which is generally one third of the gross
settlement amount. If your lawyer is not successful in obtaining any money
damages for you then you would owe no lawyer fees. Under this system, any
person is able to go out and choose a lawyer without having to be concerned
about paying any money out of pocket. This system helps level the playing
field when fighting against large corporations and insurance companies.
There are a great number of other advantages as to why it makes great sense
to hire a Hartford Connecticut accident lawyer under a contingency fee agreement which could
include, but not be limited to the following: because most injury lawyers
charge the same percentage, you would be able to go out and hire one of the
best Connecticut personal injury lawyers that you can find. This way you can
hire a lawyer with a great deal of experience for the same fee that you
would pay somebody who is just starting out practicing law; You and your
lawyers become partners in your case so both are working towards the same
common goal which is to maximize the amount of money that your lawyer is
able to get for your accident or injury case; and you do not have to worry
about risking any of your own money because the Hartford Connecticut injury lawyer
that you hire should be willing to take your case on both a contingency fee
basis and will advance the cost to develop your case and again those sums
are only repaid to the lawyer you a are successful in obtaining money
damages.
