Should I hire an Attorney for my injuries: If you believe that your injuries are minor and that you will not loose time in school or work, and your injuries will not prolong for an extended time and incurred substantial medical costs, then you may want to settle it yourself in small claims court. However, in most instances Insurance companies and negligent parties will not provide you with the compensation you are entitled to without legal representation. What are the costs of hiring a Personal Injury Lawyer: Personal Injury Attorneys usually handle such cases on a contingency basis, which means you don’t have to pay out of pocket. After a settlement has been awarded your attorney’s cost will come by way of a percentage of the total recovery.
