Auto accident attorney fees may not be the first thing that comes to mind after an auto accident, but it may be in your thoughts fairly soon after as you begin to reflect on what’s happened and assess your situation moving forward. Again, there are a lot of factors you’ll be dealing with, but let’s just discuss auto accident attorney fees specifically.
As you will see from the videos below and as you constantly see and hear on all of the attorney ads, you don’t have to pay them unless they win your case. So then, the question becomes how much will it be when they win? Well, attorneys usually work on a contingency basis. The amount of the auto accident attorney fees can range from
25 – 40 percent with the typical amount being a third of the settlement. But, it can be on the higher end if the case goes to court or litigation.
While attorneys may work on a contingency basis, when you sit down and talk to them, don’t be afraid to ask about any and all other costs associated with your case that you may have to pay. Remember, whatever you agree to, you will be contractually obligated to pay, so be aware of every nickel and dime before you sign the agreement for your auto accident attorney fees.
The two videos below discuss this information. However, the second video is included because it presents an interesting situation that you may find yourself in and it should be something you discuss upfront with your attorney so be sure to watch that one too.
