It is the policy of Robert W. Karr & Associates that no client be turned away because of an inability to pay a retainer [...]]]> Attorney’s Fees in a personal injury case are usually set by a Contingent Fee Contract, allowing for payment of fees only after a recovery has been obtained for the client.

It is the policy of Robert W. Karr & Associates that no client be turned away because of an inability to pay a retainer or upfront expenses.  While expenses are reimbursed out of any settlement or verdict,  if there is no recovery, the expenses do not have to be repaid by the client.

At the beginning of the representation, the client is given an opportunity to review the Contingent Fee Agreement, which must subsequently be approved and signed before the relationship begins.   Once a settlement or verdict is obtained, the Contingent Fee Agreement governs the payment of attorney’s fees from the gross settlement or verdict.

Typically, attorney’s fees in a personal injury case are 1/3 of the total recovery, plus reimbursement of costs.
