How Much Should I Expect to Pay A Malpractice Lawyer? is a post from: http://www.personalinjurylawyercalgaryinc.ca/

If you are a party in a vehicle or a slip and fall accident, you should not have to be concerned about what an attorney will charge you for representing you for filing a lawsuit against the person or people who are at fault for your injuries. Fortunately, the majority of personal injury attorneys will take your case on a “contingent” basis. What this means is that you do not have to pay the attorney anything up front. Instead, you will pay prior to your claim being settled or a judgment is granted.

After your case is resolved, the lawyer will be entitled to be compensated for any expenses that they accrued while working on your case and a charge for their legal services. Usually, the charge is a portion of the value of your claim. The amount may be different from claim to claim, dependent on a combination of circumstances like how difficult the claim was, issues of liability (determining who was at fault and whether or not they will admit to being guilty), the dollar amount of the claim, health problems that happened before the accident that may make it harder to file a claim or lower the monetary value of the claim, etc.

It is very important how well you trust the attorney that is handling your claim. Do not underestimate the value of this. You get what you pay for, and it is worth it now and in the long run for you to feel comfortable that your attorney is has enough experience and knowledge to handle your case and go to bat for you inside and outside of the courtroom.
