"There are a lot of reasons [for the delay], ranging from uncertainty about the merits of their case to wanting to avoid the appearance of being litigious." - Richard Duquette
Two Things to Consider Every client has his own set of reasons for hesitating hiring a bicycle injury lawyer. But there are two things to bear in mind. One is the minimal risks and the other is the fact that delays can prejudice the case.
Minimal Risks in Hiring a Lawyer Fast According to the California Rules of Professional Conduct, an attorney has the duty to zealously protect your interests. When you hire him for your case, you give him the authority to act on your behalf.
With a competent attorney by your side, you gain a lot of benefits. It also strengthens your case. He knows when to "strike when the iron is hot, and how to preserve evidence."
Hire Based on a Contingency Fee The fees for hiring an attorney in personal injury cases are generally on a contingent basis. As the client, you only pay your lawyer if his performance yields positive results.
