Our philosophy is simple: treat every case with the importance it deserves, because it matters to our clients. We believe that every accident victim should receive full and fair compensation for serious injuries caused by the negligence or wrongdoing of another. Our firm’s philosophy is to treat every case with the importance it deserves – because it matters to our clients.

When you contact our firm, you have the opportunity of receiving one-on-one, personalized service from a solo practitioner. We’ll customize our representation to suit your specific needs and we have a long track record of success in helping clients move on from their accident. Whether you suffered injuries from a minor car accident or severe truck accident, we have the resources and skills needed to pursue the max from negligent parties.

How We Win Your Case

During our initial free consultation, we’ll listen to your story, gather details about your case, and explain next steps to get to work on your accident claim as soon as possible.

We’ll Relentlessly Negotiate with Insurance Companies

We consider all the ways your life is impacted by your accident. We won’t settle for less than your case is worth and have nailed negotiating settlements down to a science. So much so, that we train our whole staff to use the same strategy.

We Defer All Payments Until We Win Your Case

Our goal is to recover what was lost, not add to your financial stress. That’s why we take care of all your needs after an accident or injury, including helping you repair your car, setting you up with a rental, and putting a hold on your medical bills, all at no cost to you.

We Only Get Paid if You Do, Offering a Completely Free Service Unless And Until You Win.

If you are faced with a legal issue, one of your primary concerns may be how much a lawyer will cost. You may even be tempted to handle your own case instead of reaching out to a legal professional for advice. However, you should know that lawyers frequently work on a contingency fee basis with certain case types (often personal injury and other matters based on negligence). That means you won’t pay anything until you win.

The “No win, No fee” lawyers at David I. Fuchs, Injury & Accident Lawyer, P.A. utilize a contingency fee agreement to allow victims of negligence to file a personal injury lawsuit without worrying about the legal costs. We take on the risk of paying for all expenses up-front, and we don’t ask for any legal fees unless you win.

As an accident victim, you should not have to carry the burden of the expensive legal process. When settlement negotiations fail, a personal injury case can cost between $15,000 and $30,000, or up to $100,000 for more complex cases. When you use our legal representation, you only pay if you win.

Attorneys must comply with specific rules of professional conduct when establishing and charging fees for their work. For example, attorneys are required to have a written agreement detailing fees that the client signs.

What is a Contingency Fee?

A “contingency fee” is a method of paying a lawyer for their legal services. While some attorneys charge an hourly rate, often requiring a large up-front deposit called a retainer, lawyers who work on a contingency basis receive their legal fees if their client wins the case.

Contingency fees are used in most personal injury and workers’ compensation cases. They aren’t generally permitted for criminal or divorce cases, as that appears to encourage illegal activity or more divorces.

In a contingency fee agreement, the attorney only gets paid for their time if they help the client successfully receive compensation. Thus, the attorney’s fees are “contingent upon” the client winning compensation through a settlement or jury verdict.

How Are Costs Tracked?

All attorneys track their expenses and time spent on cases. You will probably have to repay all of the expenses paid by the law firm, although that will likely come from a portion of the compensation won in your case. Costs may be tracked in case management software that can quickly produce a report. You should ask your attorney for an account of your case expenses frequently.

Some typical costs associated with cases include:

  • Court filing fees
  • Postage and mailing
  • Expert witness costs
  • Copying and documenting expenses
  • Court reporter and dictation costs
  • Transcript costs

How Does the Client Benefit from Contingency Fees?

The most significant benefit to the client with a contingency fee agreement is that they don’t have to pay any money upfront. In fact, they don’t have to pay any money for legal fees unless they receive compensation from the defendant.

A client also benefits from a contingency fee because the ability to file a lawsuit against someone who was negligent or acted wrongfully is not limited to those who can afford the expensive legal process. The legal arena has traditionally discriminated against economically challenged individuals and minorities. When an attorney works on a contingency fee, they level the playing field and allow anyone with a valid claim to go to court and get what they deserve.

Some of the pros of contingency fees include:

  • You only pay if you win.
  • You won’t pay any legal fees upfront.
  • Your attorney will work hard to get their legal fees and your compensation.
