You shouldn’t have to pay out of your pocket at all to hire a competent attorney in a medical malpractice case because we routinely … The Florida Supreme Court has approved our handling these cases on what’s called a contingent fee basis. That means our fee is a percentage of what we recover for you. If a lawyer wants you to hand over money to them to start investigating your case or to pay for cause in your case, it likely means that that attorney either doesn’t really have confidence in your case or can’t afford to finance the case. In either situation, I’d recommend that you search further for an attorney who has the wear with all and the belief in your case to have their own skin in the game.
