People seeking a personal injury lawyer must understand that pursuing a legal claim necessarily involves certain out-of-pocket costs. Litigation expenses include filing fees, deposition fees, fees for expert witnesses, consultants, investigators, graphic exhibits, medical records, etc. These fees can total anywhere from $2,000 - $100,000 in personal injury cases. Do I have to pay some or all of these expenses up
front? CATEGORY 1 - Some attorneys may require
you to fund the expenses up front even though the attorney
fee is contingent. This is somewhat rare. In all three categories, the attorney will deduct all expenses he or she advanced on your behalf from the ultimate recovery in your case after the contingency fee has been deducted from the gross recovery (the term “gross recovery” means the total value of the complete recovery). Dozier Law Group will almost always fall into CATEGORY 3 - advancing the expenses of any case we accept.
