No Compensation, No Fee

In Massachusetts, if you’ve been hurt as a pedestrian as the result of being struck by a car, you don’t pay an auto accident lawyer anything unless the lawyer gets you compensation for your pain and suffering.

Generally, in Massachusetts, an auto accident attorney’s fee is 1/3 of what you recover from the insurance company or the at-fault party. If you don’t recover anything, you don’t pay the auto accident lawyer anything.
