How We Charge For Our Services

 

Our fee for most claims will be on a contingency basis. We charge you up to 10% of your recovery from the insurance company. The percentage amount may be adjusted, in agreement with you in advance, depending upon the size and other circumstances of your loss.

 

In some cases we charge on a straight time billing basis or on other modified structures, in agreement with you. These are typically cases in which our involvement may be limited or the nature of the case makes the fact or amount of recovery difficult to assess. We also regularly provide a free initial consultation.
