If you have been injured in a Massachusetts motor vehicle accident, slip and fall, dog bite, or any other kind of accident, you don’t have to worry about paying a lawyer to represent you. The reason is that nearly all personal injury lawyers take injury cases on a contingency fee basis. The contingency is met with either a settlement or favorable judgment. Usually the contingency fee is 33%, but it may be more or less, depending on the lawyer and the type of case. Most personal injury attorneys will advance all costs in connection with pursuing your claim.

Therefore, if you have been injured and need an attorney, money is not an issue: the personal attorney will likely take your case on a contingency fee basis.
