My clients appreciate the personal service they receive from my firm. I believe it is important to keep in touch with clients and to keep them regularly informed of developments in the case. It is my policy to return phone calls and e-mails promptly. In representing disability/personal injury claimants, I act on a contingency basis. That means you will pay no upfront fees. My fee payment comes as a percentage of whatever financial compensation I obtain in your claim. In the unlikely event that I do not obtain a financial settlement or award, you owe me nothing but out-of -pocket expenses.
