How much will it cost me to proceed with my claim if I hire a lawyer through mo-injurylaw.com?

If there is no money recovery, then you pay nothing. However, think about the cost of not hiring an experienced attorney and being re-victimized by the insurance company!

How much is a lawyer going to charge?

In all personal injury cases, David Payne Attorney will charge a contingency fee; a percentage of the recovery from the insurance company or other party responsible for you loss (typically 1/3). Fees vary depending on whether the case settles prior to lawsuit, or if a lawsuit must be filed. If you do not get a recovery, we do not collect any fees or costs. 12862326.jpg

Why would I need to file a lawsuit?

Any case where the insurance company does not offer adequate compensation to pay for your injuries and a "cost/benefit" analysts shows a greater likelihood of return by filing a lawsuit is a situation where a lawsuit should be considered. Each client has the sole and absolute discretion on whether to file a lawsuit.

If the insurance company makes an offer that is unacceptable to you, the only other remedy is to file a lawsuit and proceed. Again, the choice of filing the lawsuit rests with you.
