A personal injury claim seeks compensation for injuries caused by someone else’s fault, covering medical costs, income loss, rehabilitation, and non-economic damages such as pain and suffering.

In many cases, you may avoid court by reaching a settlement. If a fair agreement can’t be reached, a lawsuit can move forward with preparation for trial.
During a case, medical bills are typically paid by the injured party and later reimbursed from the settlement or award. Your attorney helps keep track of bills and ensure proper documentation.
A contingency fee means the attorney’s payment comes from a portion of the recovered amount. If there is no settlement or verdict, there is no fee. Always review the fee agreement.
