What are the risks in filing a lawsuit?
A. Our auto lawyers would like to reassure you that there’s no legal risk in filing a lawsuit or hiring an attorney. If you have very serious injuries from a car accident that have dramatically impacted your life and your body function, than it’s possible that you will have a viable case and be able to collect No-Fault insurance benefits and pain and suffering damages. That being said, every person, car accident and personal injury is different. There’s no cookie-cutter answer as to how much you will be able to recover. There is also no financial risk in filing an auto accident lawsuit in Michigan. That’s because with personal injury cases, the client pays absolutely no money to the auto lawyers unless the lawyer wins the case. This is called a contingency fee system, and most personal injury lawyers throughout the state are paid on a contingency fee basis.
