Who will pay my medical bills?

After an injury or an accident, most victims worry about how they will pay their medical bills. Depending on your case, there are different answers to this question. Your auto or health insurance may cover your medical costs, or you may have to rely on the at-fault party’s insurance carrier.

An experienced lawyer at Munley Law Personal Injury Attorneys can help you decide if your claim is valid.

How much is my case worth?

First and foremost, if a lawyer or law firm gives you a dollar value for your case right away, don’t trust it. They are likely making unrealistic promises, or may be persuading you to settle for less than your case is actually worth in order to settle it quickly. It is impossible to know what kind of settlement to expect before investigating the extent of any injuries sustained, medical costs, lost wages, future expenses, and pain and suffering. This is why it is important that you hire a lawyer who will complete a thorough investigation and who will never advise you to accept a settlement for less than you truly deserve. Each case is unique, so the best way to learn about what compensation you may be entitled to is to speak with an attorney at Munley Law Personal Injury Attorneys for free.

What is a “contingent fee”?

Some law firms, including Munley Law Personal Injury Attorneys, operate on a contingent fee basis. This means that we only charge a fee if we win your case. In other words, our getting paid is “contingent” upon our success. The fee is a percentage of the total amount of the settlement or verdict we obtain for you. At Munley Law Personal Injury Attorneys, that fee will never be greater than the sum paid to you. We pay all upfront costs so that you never have to pay anything out of your own pocket. If for some reason we can’t get you the compensation you need, you owe us nothing.
