What are the Expected Attorney Fees in a Personal Injury Claim

Learn what the expected attorney fees in a personal injury claim are from experienced Lafayette personal injury attorney, Bennett Boyd Anderson, Jr., of Anderson Blanda & Saltzman.

Transcription

"Boyd: Hi, I'm Boyd Anderson, a personal injury lawyer in Lafayette, Louisiana. We're often asked what are the expected attorney's fees and expenses with respect to a personal injury claims such as an auto accident or an 18-wheeler accident. Generally, in Louisiana, most attorneys charged between one-third and 40% of the gross recovery which is collected at the end of the claim. This allows people who cannot afford attorneys full access to the best attorneys in the land. Our firm charges 1/3, not 40%.

In addition to the attorney's fees, you can expect multiple expenses in prosecuting a personal injury claim, particularly, the medical reports as well as the medical expenses have to be prepaid. That's why it's important to hire an attorney with the financial background to fully prosecute your claim and represent you if you were injured through the fault of another. If you have a personal injury claim in Acadiana, please contact my firm, Anderson Blanda & Saltzman. We have been helping people for over 90 combined years."

Boyd Anderson, along with his associates and staff always keep you in the know. He is very personable, offers great advise and he saw my suit to the end personally. It’s very rare that an attorney personally responds back to emails and calls. Not to mention the accolades, experience and expertise is top notch and really impressive. I would definitely recommend this firm to anybody if they are serious about winning. This firm gets the job done and exceeds expectations. Shantele J.

With the plethora of advertisements one sees nowdays, it's difficult to discern just who is best qualified to represent you if you need legal assistance. An overabundance of tv commercials does not necessarily point one in the correct direction. When I needed help, I choose Boyd Anderson and his firm. Best decision I ever made. Superlative service throughout the legal process...and I very much appreciated the prompt attention to details I suspect other firms would have probably overlooked. Anderson's team and experience made a huge difference in my life...an exceptional group of professionals...for sure. Paulette P.
