My Son Was Involved In A Car Accident That Wasn’t His Fault And Need A Personal Injury Attorney – But I Don’t Want The Attorney To Get All The Money. What Should I Do?

An attorney will most likely set up a contingency fee agreement with you for a lawsuit involving a car accident. Thus, if money is recovered as the result of the settlement or a win at trial, the attorney will only take a certain percentage of the money for his fee.

In most jurisdictions in Louisiana, the percentage is usually 33 1/3{d37eae5b8410ed8fb22098597e6ecfa689963c7e8a6548fdf24949bed3e82123} but can increase depending on the difficulty of the case or if the case does go to trial and becomes a very involved matter. It is important to meet with an attorney and, during the first consultation, discuss all of your questions with him or her including matters of their fee.
