Most personal injury cases are handled on a contingent fee basis. That means the lawyers fees are paid from the money recovered for you. If there is no recovery, there is no fee. Thanks to contingent fees, you can hire a lawyer right away to get to work on your claim.

After almost any type of accident, you should contact a lawyer. You have important legal rights and responsibilities, and a lawyer can explain them to you. A lawyer can also evaluate your claim and tell you how much money you may be entitled to receive.

You also need a lawyer’s help dealing with insurance companies. After an accident an insurance adjuster may try to convince you that you don’t need a lawyer or that a lawyer won’t help you get more money. But remember that the adjuster works for the insurance company, not you. Only your lawyer is truly fighting to get you the maximum recovery.

Also, in some cases there are short deadlines for filing claims. The experienced attorneys at Ernest Holzberg & Associates will make sure your case is handled properly and all deadlines are met.
