How Does a Contingency Fee Work?
In a contingency fee agreement, you only pay for your attorney’s services if the lawyer secures compensation on your behalf. If you win your case, your lawyer will receive a fixed percentage of the financial award. If you lose, you don’t have to pay anything.
At face value, a contingency fee means exactly what it sounds like: your attorney’s fee is contingent upon the outcome of your case. A contingency fee arrangement is particularly appealing to injury victims since there’s little financial risk involved, and there is potentially much to gain through financial recovery. You can learn more with a free initial consultation from our firm.
A Lawyer Can Determine if You Have a Valid Claim
The easiest way to figure out if you have recourse to pursue compensation from another party is to get a free case evaluation. During your free consultation, you can learn your legal rights and options before you decide what to do next.
A contingency fee attorney in Indiana can answer your questions and assess your eligibility. Broadly speaking, a personal injury claim should include the following elements:
- You were owed a duty of care
- That duty of care was breached as a result of negligence, and you were injured
- You suffered damages (financial losses) as a direct result of your injury
Remember that the burden of proof is on you and your personal injury attorney. To have a successful case, under Indiana Code 34-51-2-6, you’ll need to demonstrate that your claim has a greater than 50% chance of being true.

Why Hire a Contingency Fee Lawyer in Indiana?
An experienced attorney can help you secure the funds you need to cover all your losses after an accidental injury. We know that injury victims can feel reluctant to seek legal help from an attorney because they believe they can’t afford it.
While it’s true that some law firms charge hundreds of dollars in legal fees per hour, most personal injury lawyers only take payment for their fees after wrapping up a claim. Our firm sticks to this standard when helping clients like you.
We provide our legal services after you sign a contingency fee agreement because we never want to add to the financial burdens you experience.

How a Lawyer Can Resolve Your Accident Claim
Our team uses two primary methods to help accident victims secure the compensation they need. In many cases, we can:
Handle the Insurance Company
When you have an experienced attorney in your corner, it makes it tough for insurance adjusters to control the outcome of your case. Make no mistake; the insurance company has a financial interest in paying you as little as possible, and you can bet that they will do everything in their power to do that.
We know how to handle the insurance company and fight for maximum compensation. In many cases, we can resolve your claim out of court through a fair settlement.
File a Lawsuit
In some cases, the insurance company will refuse to offer fair financial compensation. In these situations, you can rely on us to help with a personal injury lawsuit against the liable party.
We aren’t afraid to go through the court system to force the negligent party to provide you with fair compensation. We’re ready to explain the process of filing a personal injury lawsuit today.
