Keep More of Your Personal Injury Settlement Money

25% Contingency Fee When Settled Prior to Lawsuit Filing if You Win

Did you know that most personal injury law firms take between 33 1/3% and 50% of your settlement in contingency fees after your case is won? Imagine that you won $100,000 for an injury claim, only to find that you actually only got $67,000 or, worse yet, $50,000. Can you still even afford to recover comfortably at that point? Maybe not!

At the Law Offices of Ruben Ortiz, our personal injury attorney thinks the client who was injured should be the one who benefits the most from a winning claim. In order to keep things fair and keep our clients happy, we collect a contingency fee amount of just 25% when a case settles without a lawsuit being filed. The same $100,000 win mentioned before would equal a full $75,000 for our client! No Upfront Fees: We Only Get Paid If You Do

Personal injury lawyers get paid on a "contingency fee" basis: They collect a percentage of whatever compensation they recover on a client's behalf.

At the Law Offices of Ruben Ortiz, we think the client who was injured should be the one who benefits the most from a winning claim. In order to keep things fair and keep our clients happy, we offer a free initial consultation, free case evaluation, and no attorney's fees unless your case is won.

What Does A Personal Injury Attorney Do?

A personal injury attorney is a legal professional who specializes in representing individuals who have suffered physical or psychological injuries as a result of the negligence or wrongful actions of others. The primary role of a personal injury attorney is to help their clients seek compensation for their injuries and losses. Here are the key functions and responsibilities of a personal injury attorney:

• Consultation: Personal injury attorneys typically offer free initial consultations to assess the potential merits of a case. During this consultation, they listen to the client's account of the incident, evaluate the circumstances, and provide an initial assessment of the case's viability.
• Legal Advice: Personal injury attorneys advise their clients on their legal rights and options, helping them understand the potential courses of action available to seek compensation. They explain the strengths and weaknesses of the case.
• Investigation: Attorneys conduct thorough investigations into the circumstances surrounding the injury. This may involve gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses, obtaining relevant documents, and consulting with experts to establish liability and damages.
• Case Valuation: Personal injury attorneys assess the value of the case by calculating the economic and non-economic damages suffered by the client. Economic damages may include medical bills, lost wages, and property damage, while non-economic damages may include pain and suffering.
• Negotiation: Attorneys negotiate with insurance companies and the at-fault parties to reach a settlement that provides fair compensation to the client. Negotiation may involve back-and-forth discussions and the presentation of evidence to support the claim.
• Filing Lawsuits: If a fair settlement cannot be reached through negotiation, personal injury attorneys may file a lawsuit on behalf of their clients. They prepare the necessary legal documents, represent their clients in court, and advocate for their rights during the trial process.
• Court Representation: Personal injury attorneys represent their clients in court, presenting the case, examining witnesses, cross-examining the opposing party's witnesses, and making legal arguments to a judge and/or jury.
• Advocating for Maximum Compensation: Personal injury attorneys work diligently to secure the maximum compensation available for their clients. This includes pursuing damages for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and other losses.
• Settlement Agreements: If a settlement is reached or a court issues a verdict in favor of the client, the attorney helps ensure that the terms of the settlement or judgment are carried out.
• Client Support: In addition to the legal aspects of the case, personal injury attorneys provide emotional support to their clients, helping them navigate the challenges and uncertainties that often arise during the legal process.
• Contingency Fee Arrangements: Many personal injury attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they secure a settlement or win a verdict for their client. Their fees are typically a percentage of the compensation obtained.
