We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing upfront and nothing unless we win your case. When we settle or win your claim, our fee comes from your recovery, removing the financial risk of hiring an attorney after an accident. Beyond our attorney fee, we also advance all case expenses on your behalf, including filing fees, medical record retrieval, expert witness fees, and investigation costs. You don’t pay these out of pocket while we’re working your case; we recover them from the settlement or judgment when we win.
For example, when we represented a client injured in a rear-end collision on I-293, they paid absolutely nothing during the 9-month case. We handled all communication with the other driver’s insurance company, gathered their medical records, obtained an independent medical evaluation, and negotiated aggressively. After we secured an $85,000 settlement, our contingency fee and all case expenses came directly from that recovery. The client received the net amount after those deductions, and never wrote a check to us at any stage. This is how we structure every case because we believe you shouldn’t have to choose between justice and paying bills while you recover.
During your free consultation, we’ll explain exactly how fees and expenses work for your specific situation, what percentage we charge, and when those costs are recovered. There’s no obligation to hire us, and you can ask as many questions as you need to feel confident about how the financial side works.

Our contingency fee arrangement means you don’t need to afford a lawyer upfront. You only pay us if we recover compensation for you. This is how most personal injury attorneys work, especially for cases like yours where insurance coverage exists to pay the claim.
If you’re worried about legal costs, that’s exactly why we offer free consultations with no obligation.
-
Most cases settle within 6 to 12 months, though this varies based on injury severity, insurance company cooperation, and whether the case goes to trial. Simple fender benders on I-293 might resolve faster; serious injuries often need more time for medical treatment and recovery before we can accurately value your claim.
We’ll give you a realistic timeline during your consultation based on the specifics of your accident and injuries.
-
Denials happen, and we know how to fight them. Insurance companies sometimes deny legitimate claims to save money, but we have decades of experience negotiating with New Hampshire adjusters and litigating in local courts if necessary.
If your claim is denied, we evaluate whether to appeal, negotiate further, or pursue a lawsuit. You’re never forced into court; we advise you on the best path forward for your situation.
-
Most cases settle before trial, so you won’t step foot in a Manchester courtroom. We negotiate aggressively with insurance companies to reach fair settlements without litigation.
However, if the insurance company won’t offer reasonable compensation, we’re prepared to take your case to trial. You always decide whether to accept a settlement or go to court. We present your options and recommend the path we believe is best for you.

That’s why early legal guidance matters so much. When you bring us in right after your accident, we immediately preserve evidence, interview witnesses while details are fresh, document your injuries with the right medical providers, and deal directly with insurance adjusters so they can’t twist your words or pressure you into a lowball settlement. You’ve been through enough already. The last thing you need is to navigate complex legal procedures, argue with claims handlers who are trained to minimize payouts, or wonder whether you’re leaving money on the table that could cover your medical bills, lost income, and ongoing pain.
