The thought of expensive attorney fees on top of all your other responsibilities can be discouraging. Let me put some light on this issue. I don’t get paid unless you get paid! In other types of law attorneys require hourly rates or that a retainer be paid before any work will be done, this is not the case in an Idaho workers’ compensation case. We don’t get paid unless you do. From your settlement a percentage is taken to pay for the attorney fees, usually that fee does not exceed 25%. If your case goes to hearing attorney’s fees usually don’t exceed 30%. Don’t let not having money be a deterrent. Don’t be afraid to get help. It could end up costing you in the end by not getting fair compensation.
I recently interviewed a potential client that caused big problems to his own case because he did not get help from an experienced Idaho workers’ compensation lawyer. I now must spend additional time trying to undo a problem that could have easily avoided. Don’t let this happen to you. Bring an experienced Idaho workers’ compensation lawyer into your case early! It is so much easier to prevent problems from happening. I am free until I help you secure contested benefits. I do not take a fee out of Idaho workers’ compensation benefits you would have received without my help. Moreover, The Idaho Industrial Commission has to approve all the attorney fees I take out of your benefits. I will be careful to only take out fees from your Idaho workers’ compensation benefits when I have earned them.
