Colorado Accident Lawyer Tom Metier Explains Attorney Fees

Rob Rosenthal:

Does it cost you anything to speak to a lawyer about an injury or an accident? We ask personal injury lawyer Tom Metier for an Ask The Lawyers Quick Question.

Tom Metier:

It shouldn't cost you a thing to speak with a lawyer about a personal injury case that you may have, to get it evaluated and to find out what you need to know. Those of us who do personal injury cases, do them on a contingent fee basis, so if you were to call my firm, we would speak with you absolutely for free. We'd help you understand what your rights are, whether you have a claim and answer your other questions, and the reason is is if we decide to take your case because you have one, why then you would only have to pay an attorney's fee if at the end of the day we got money for you. There'd be no out-of-pocket expenses to you in that process, and it's for that reason when you're hurt, you might not be making the living, you may need every penny you've got of your savings, and we don't want that to be the situation. So you may have to make a claim and you shouldn't have to spend your money paying the attorney during the course of a personal injury action.
