The Contingency Fee Model
New York personal injury attorneys typically work on contingency, meaning their fee is a percentage of what they recover for you. If they don't win, you don't owe attorney fees.
What About Costs?
Beyond the fee, cases incur costs like filing fees, expert witnesses, and records. Many firms advance these and recoup them from the recovery; how costs are handled should be spelled out in your retainer.
Why This Helps Injured People
Contingency fees let people pursue valid claims without paying upfront — leveling the field against well-funded insurers. Your initial consultation is also free.
