If you’ve been hurt in a motor vehicle accident, you may already be facing mounting medical bills, lost wages, and other financial pressures. Hiring a skilled and experienced personal injury lawyer, especially in the Boston and Metrowest areas of Massachusetts, can feel like an overwhelming and out-of-reach expense — but here’s the good news: when you work with our Framingham car accident lawyers, you pay nothing upfront.
In Massachusetts, personal injury lawyers — including our team — typically work on a contingency fee basis. This means you don’t pay any legal fees unless we recover compensation for you. Let’s take a look at how contingent fee agreements offer accident victims in Massachusetts a fair shot at getting the compensation they deserve after being injured in a car accident caused by someone else.
Here's How Contingent Fees Work With Our Injury Firm
We believe that everyone deserves access to skilled legal representation, regardless of their financial situation. That’s why we accept injury claims from accidents on a contingent fee basis. With our contingent fee agreements, there are no excessively high hourly rate fees and no deposit or retainer required. With our contingent fee agreements, we only get paid if we successfully recover compensation for you.
Additionally, we advance all claim or case expenses – which can be significant – to pursue the compensation you deserve for your injuries and financial losses. You won’t have to worry about paying anything out of pocket while your case is ongoing. We take on the financial risk so that you can focus on yourself, your recovery, and your family.
If we successfully obtain a settlement or win your case at trial, our legal fee on your case would be a percentage of the amount we recover and the expenses are typically reimbursed from the recovery — but if there’s no recovery, you owe us nothing.
In an nut shell: our clients never give us a check – it is our office that will give you a check when we are successful in your case.
A Contingent Fee Agreement Offers Access to Experienced Legal Representation with No Upfront Costs
A contingent fee agreement gives accident victims more than just financial flexibility — it gives them a fair shot at getting the compensation they deserve. After an injury, many people feel overwhelmed and powerless against big insurance companies and their systems designed to protect their profits.
By eliminating upfront costs and only charging if the case is successful, a contingent fee ensures that anyone, no matter their financial situation, can get the legal help they need to stand up and fight for the compensation they deserve. It transforms what could feel like an impossible battle into a realistic opportunity for accountability and recovery of the money you deserve.
How a Contingent Fee Agreement Lets You Fight Back Against Insurance Companies in Massachusetts
Hiring an experienced personal injury lawyer on a contingent fee basis gives accident victims the power to fight back against the insurance companies — without paying a dime upfront. These insurance companies are armed with teams of trained adjusters and lawyers whose job is to deny or minimize claims. Without strong legal representation, injured people in Massachusetts can be overwhelmed and pushed into accepting far less than they deserve.
A contingent fee agreement breaks down that barrier, giving victims immediate access to seasoned and experienced car accident attorneys who know how to stand up to insurance companies, expose their tactics, and demand full, fair compensation. It ensures that accident victims are not bullied or outmatched — no matter what resources the insurance company has on its side.
