Frequently asked questions
What affects settlement?
Medical costs, lost income, pain and suffering, liability clarity, and insurance limits. High-limit policies mean bigger offers.
Do I pay upfront?
No, personal injury lawyers work on contingency – they take a percentage of the settlement. You pay nothing unless you win.
How to maximize payout?
Document everything, follow medical treatment, avoid social media, and hire an experienced lawyer. Don't accept the first offer.
