What does a personal injury attorney charge?

Most lawyers charge an hourly rate plus a retainer fee. These types of lawyers perform billable hours and charge you according to the amount of time they spend working on your case. This is not the case with personal injury attorneys. Personal injury lawyers, or PI lawyers for short, are permitted under ethics rules to represent clients under a "contingency fee" agreement. The availability of a contingency fee agreement for an injury victim is essential because, as a practical matter, it is hard for most injured persons to pay hourly rates for a lawyer, especially when they have been injured and may be out of work. The specifics of the contingency fee agreement can vary from state to state and even from lawyer to lawyer within a state; however, a contingency fee basically means that if the injured person does not recover anything, then they pay will not be required to pay their lawyer anything either. Specifically, under a contingency fee agreement, your personal injury lawyer will take a predetermined percentage of any recovery they obtain for you, the client. Not only does this save you money, but it also aligns your lawyer's interests with yours, ensuring they work hard and efficiently to get you the maximum recovery and do not simply rack up lots of hours.
