Be cautious that you fully understand the agreements you make with your personal injury professional about their legal fees, so you won’t be confronted with unpleasant surprises in hindsight.

Is there anything unclear for you, please do not hesitate to ask questions and discuss this with your personal injury professional. And, even though you don’t assume it in the beginning, while discussing the agreements it is wise to consider the possibility that at any point you are not satisfied by the way your interests are looked after or you want to switch to a different firm. In that case the agreements on the legal fees should not prevent this in an unreasonable way.

So be cautious that you don’t sign an unconscionable contract with your personal injury professional. Such contracts are unfortunately still used by some firms. If you have any doubts you can contact us for free advice. We are happy to help and advise you, even though you are not our client.
