No Win No Fee Accident Claims

November 10, 2010, by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

"No Win No Fee" is Internet speak for personal injury lawyers who do not charge a fee for their services unless they recover money for the client's claim by settlement, arbitration, or trial.

Online, "No Win No Fee" and "Free Consultation" are big tag lines for accident lawyers marketing to potential clients. Lawyers use the idea of not taking a fee unless the client gets a recovery as their law firm's unique selling point. Our law firm does not charge a fee if we do not get a monetary recovery. But neither do the vast majority of personal injury accident law firms in this country.

Our firm also fronts the expenses in personal injury cases in Maryland and does not require clients to pay back the firm's expenses if we do not prevail in the case. Some states do not allow this practice and require the clients to front all costs in their personal injury case.
