Most personal injury cases operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning you typically pay nothing upfront. If we win or settle your case, legal fees are paid from the recovery. If not, there is no fee for our work.
The timeline for spinal cord injury cases varies with case complexity, liability, and available evidence. Some cases resolve in months, others may take years if filed in court.
Compensation can cover medical expenses, rehabilitation, lost wages, supports, and non economic losses like pain and suffering. The exact amount depends on medical needs and impact on daily life.
If liability is not clear, we pursue evidence gathering and expert review to build a strong claim. We may propose a settlement while preserving rights to pursue trial if needed.
Insurance may cover some medical bills, but out of pocket costs and long term care often require a claim that addresses ongoing needs and future treatment.
