Our pricing depends on your case. We use a standard contingency fee agreement. Our rate is also the standard one-third (33.3%) used throughout Michigan. For example, if you were injured in a car crash, we use this agreement.

In certain exceptions, we will help you on an hourly basis or a modified contingency fee and an hourly basis. For example, you are suing your insurance company for not paying insurance benefits.
What is a contingency fee agreement?
Marquette personal injury lawyers use contingency fee agreements. Almost all personal injury lawyers in Michigan use contingency fee agreements. It is the standard.
It is standard throughout the US, too. Although the rate can change in other states.
The fee agreement’s terms say that, if you receive money for the damages you sustained, then we receive 1/3 of that amount for the attorney fee plus costs. Costs are things like filing fees. That money does not go to us. If you get nothing, we get nothing.

Are contingency fee agreements any good?
Yes, for many reasons. Here are two big ones:
First, many people can’t afford to pay hourly. This is especially true when a case can last three or more years. There is also a ton of work that must be done.
Second, it cuts down on how many cases we have. We only help people that: (1) we believe we can help; and (2) that are seriously injured.
As a result, we have less clients and can spend a lot more time helping them.
I’m looking for a Marquette personal injury lawyer, but I’m still confused.
Don’t worry. We explain everything and answer all questions before you sign anything. We will never pressure you. That’s not what we’re about. We believe in being brutally honest upfront right from the get-go. That starts when you first walk in the door to decide if you want to hire us.
