How Do Personal Injury Lawyers Bill for Their Services?

There are different approaches that personal injury lawyers use to bill for their services. It is important to understand the different approaches and choose which suits you best. 

Hourly fee 

Some personal injury lawyers bill their clients on an hourly fee basis. This means that you will be charged for the hours of work that your injury lawyer spends on your case. Lawyers that use this approach for billing will require you to pay a retainer fee. They will deduct their expenses from the retainer fee. 

Contingency fee 

Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. This means that you do not pay any fees unless the lawyer recovers compensation in your case. The lawyer’s fee will be calculated as a percentage of the compensation they recover for you. You will be required to sign a contingency fee agreement. The maximum percentage that the attorneys can take is set by the state bar association.

Flat rate

Some attorneys work on a flat fee basis. The attorney will give you a specific dollar amount for their services. It doesn’t matter how many hours your case takes, they will not require you to pay more nor will they reimburse you for fewer hours. 

Combined approach 

Some lawyers use a combined approach. For example, a lawyer may charge on a contingency fee basis but require you to pay for additional fees such as filing court fees or paying expert witnesses.

Frequently Asked Questions About Lawyers Who Work on Contingency in New York

Do contingency fee rules differ depending on the type of personal injury claim you make?

Contingency fee rules as set by New York’s judiciary law are generally the same for all types of personal injury claims. However, the fees set for medical malpractice claims are regulated separately from other types of personal injury claims. According to New York’s Judiciary Law 474-a, lawyers may charge up to 30% of the first $250,000 recovered as compensation in a medical malpractice claim. They can then charge 25% on the next $250,000, 20% on subsequent $500,000, 15% on $250,000 and 10% on any amount recovered that is about $1,250,000. 

It is therefore important to ensure that your attorney provides you with a complete explanation of the fee agreement. Go through the agreement to make sure that you understand each and every part. If you are unsure about anything, refer to your lawyer for clarification before you sign the retainer agreement. You can always seek another opinion from another personal injury lawyer if you’re not satisfied.

Is there a difference between pro bono work and a contingency fee?

The terms pro bono and working on a contingency fee basis often get people mixed up. Pro bono means that the attorney is offering their services for free. If an attorney offers to represent you pro bono, it means that they are taking your case voluntarily and will not require any payment for their services.

However, if you hire a New York contingency lawyer, the lawyer will take your case and their fee will be paid from the compensation they recover on your behalf. Their payment is contingent on them recovering compensation on your behalf. You will not pay them out of pocket. Their payment is a percentage of the amount you recover. If they fail to recover compensation on your behalf, they will not be paid for their effort.

The attorneys at the Harrison Law Group, P.C. work on a contingency fee basis. We’ll fight to recover maximum compensation on your behalf and ensure that you have the money you need to get your life back on track.

What is Personal Injury?

If you’re injured as a result of a negligent third party, you may be entitled to compensation due to the damages you’ve experienced — either directly through the responsible party or their insurance company. An experienced New York personal injury lawyer will focus on tort law while seeking economic and non-economic damages for their clients — whether or not the target is a multi-million dollar award.

Personal injuries are classified as injuries to the body, mind, and emotions of an individual. When you suffer an injury because of another party, you experience turmoil, and your quality of life will change. Some victims experience loss of enjoyment of life, and even depression.

It’s important to speak with mindful attorneys who have the wisdom to handle your case effectively. Personal injury suits are filed against individuals or entities that cause harm due to recklessness, negligence, misconduct, or liability.

What Sets Us Apart?

Our attorneys and staff are competent, compassionate, and committed to seeking the maximum fair and appropriate compensation for all of our clients. We fight to win, not to quickly settle and move on to the next case. Our firm will make sure that you are properly advised of all of your options while giving you the proper legal advice to make the right decision for yourself and your family. We are willing to go above and beyond to meet your expectations, whether it’s meeting with you after hours, on the weekends, at your home, in the hospital, or at the office. We will make ourselves available for you 24/7.

We understand the immediate concerns you will have, which include paying your bills, traveling to and from work and doctors’ appointments, and taking care of your daily responsibilities.

We have been dedicated to Personal Injury and helping our clients pursue justice for over 30 years.

Types of Personal Injury

Personal injuries can refer to injuries sustained due to dental malpractice, product liability, or assault claims, but they more commonly involve the following types of injuries:

Car Accidents

When your vehicle collides with another vehicle, a pedestrian, an animal, debris, or another stationary obstruction such as a tree, pole, or building, you may face significant injuries and expenses that often include medical treatment and vehicle repairs. Following a car accident that was no fault of your own, it is important to immediately begin working with a New York personal injury lawyer to seek fair and appropriate compensation.

Truck Accidents

Motor vehicle accidents involving a truck or tractor-trailer and caused by the recklessness of others will present additional complex factors that are not present in a regular car accident case. You can be certain that there will be attorneys representing the truck driver, which is why you should partner with a New York personal injury lawyer at our law office immediately.

Motorcycle Accidents

When your motorcycle is involved in a motor vehicle accident at no fault of your own, you will need help in your fight to be fairly compensated in your case. As a client of our law firm, you can be confident that we are bringing the fight to the insurance company.

Premises Liability

An injury from an accident caused by unsafe conditions on someone else’s property often involves a fall on a slippery or uneven surface. Other types of negligence or dangerous circumstances may also lead to an injury or death. In some cases, your accident could amount to a multi-million dollar settlement. Our law office of NY accident attorneys will be happy to guide you through this process as our client.

Dog Bite

Dog owners are generally determined to be liable if their dog hurts you or anyone else. New York personal injury law in this situation provides a means to seek compensation for your medical expenses, your pain and suffering, & much more.

Slip and Fall

A property owner could be liable for damages if you slip, trip, and fall on their property due to their negligence. Working with a qualified New York personal injury lawyer in this situation is important because the Queens, Nassau County, Suffolk County, or Long Island property owner that you file a claim against will certainly be represented by law firms who are trying to dismiss or settle your case for as little as possible.

Construction Accidents

An injury sustained due to working on a construction site can be life-changing or deadly. In many cases, such an injury will prevent your ability to continue working for some duration of time. Workers’ compensation is available for these types of accidents. Depending on the details of your case, you may also be able to file a lawsuit.

Wrongful Death

Death caused by negligence or intentional actions of another party is known as wrongful death. The NY accident attorneys at our law office are experienced in these cases and are ready to help you fight for the money you need.

Medical Malpractice

When you work with a licensed medical professional, you have every right to expect that they will take prudent and cautious steps to help you work towards a successful recovery. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. The New York personal injury attorneys at our law firm are ready to help you fight for fair compensation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury Law

What types of compensation can be received in a personal injury case?

There are several types of compensable damages that can be received including money for lost wages and career change, property damage compensation, health aids, and home rehabilitation to accommodate for the injuries sustained.

What is the difference between a “personal injury claim” and “personal injury lawsuit”?

A personal injury claim is when you or the law firm you have retained and the at fault party’s insurance company try to come up with a settlement to resolve your claim.

If a settlement can not be reached, a law firm will go ahead and commence a personal injury lawsuit, which simply means taking the at fault party to court.
