Contingency Fees
Most often, our Los Angeles lawyers and attorneys take wrongful death cases on a contingency fee arrangement, where you as a client, do not pay any fees or costs associated with the litigation until the case is resolved by trial, by arbitration, through settlement or by some other resolution.
Typically in wrongful death lawsuits “taken on a contingency fee”, there is no insurance litigation cost to you, the client, unless a recovery is obtained on your behalf.
