I have a business-related question for a personal injury attorney?

Personal injury attorneys: Good, bad, or indifferent? These lawyers claim to be good hearted individuals who are only interested in pursuing justice. To prove their commitment, they are willing to work for free until a favorable settlement is achieved. What cash poor accident victim could refuse such a noble proposition? Please consider: Nobody works for free. These lawyers are able to cherry pick their cases based upon how lucrative their practices are. No competent lawyer will accept a personal injury case unless they are sure of a settlement. Also consider that the lawyer will typically receive 60% of the settlement plus their expenses (taken off of the top). The kindly lawyer will end up receiving upwards of 70% of the settlement, leaving a miserable ~30% for the person who actually was injured (talk about adding insult to injury). If you doubt me, then just try to hire a personal injury attorney on a hourly basis. They make so much more by working on "CONTINGENCY" that you won't have any takers. Gunny T: You are incorrect. I am making no assumptions regarding juries, judges or attorneys in general. I am specificly questioning the motives and manner in which PERSONAL INJURY attorneys operate. Sounds to me like you are making some assumptions yourself. 1) Are you absolutely positive that the plantiff's attny was working pro bono vs on contingency? 2) How do you know that the jury voted against a just decision in order to watch television? It sounds to me as if you are a little biased as to your specific case. Perhaps you were the plantiff?

Personal injury attorney not releasing funds from settled portion of our case? We have been dealing with a personal injury lawsuit for about two years. The accident occurred in CA and we reside in another state, so we are dealing with our attorney all long distance. The case has been complicated, mainly due to an inattentive attorney from the start, whom we fired. We retained our current attorney not too long ago and the case against the defendants insurance company has been resolved and funds have been sent to our attorney. Here is where it becomes tricky. The funds for my settlement have been sent to us, the attorney is holding the funds from my husband's portion of the settlement until a settlement is reached with our insurance company (the defendant was an underinsured driver, we had underisured driver coverage). Our attorney claims he cannot release these funds because he will more than likely need to spend the money on litigating the case against our insurance company..and it just does not make sense to me. In our eyes, the case against the defendant is closed (and in the courts eyes) I don't see why the funds cannot be released, but my attorney alleges this is normal practice in personal injury law. Anyone have any experience with a situation similar to this? Thanks. @leo, I don't think you understand the nature of the question.

In a personal injury suit, how can I keep my portion from being eaten up by attorney "expenses"? I received a contract from a personal injury attorney. It states that he will receive 40%, and that expenses (even his) will come out of my portion. There's no cap on his "expenses" so how can I protect my 60% from being eaten up? I see no point in wasting time pursuing a case that gains me little or nothing. BTW this is about the Jif Peanut Butter/Salmonella thing, which I assume will be a class action suite. Can I request a contract stating the limit of expenses? And if they say no.....run the other way! Great answers! And to clarify Stay_Fan1: I will not know if I or my children contracted Salmonella or not until our jar of peanut butter is tested. I do know that I was sick for an entire month (after not being ill for 3 years). I do know that 2 of my son's were also sick during same time period. Might be coincidence, might be salmonella. The attorney is paying for testing of the P butter. If it's clear, then no case. If it's not, then I don't feel guilty about pursuing legal action. A company as big as Con Agra should have stringent quality control and batch testing. If they didn't, shame on them!
