You might be surprised to learn just how many types of legal services attorneys will take on without any upfront payment.
In many areas of law, such as personal injury, medical malpractice, employment disputes, and even product liability, lawyers often work on a contingency fee basis. This means that you don’t pay unless they win your case.
This arrangement allows individuals to pursue justice without worrying about the financial burden of hiring a lawyer upfront.
Whether it’s fighting for compensation after an accident or defending your rights in court, there are countless cases where you can get professional legal help without any initial cost.
A contingency fee is a payment structure used by many attorneys, particularly in personal injury, employment law, and other civil cases. Under this arrangement, the lawyer’s fee is contingent upon the outcome of the case — meaning the lawyer only gets paid if they win or secure a favorable settlement for the client.
Here’s how it works:
Car accidents, slips and falls, or other incidents causing injury or damage.
Cases involving medical errors, misdiagnoses, or negligent healthcare.
Wrongful termination, workplace discrimination, harassment, or unpaid wages.
When employees are injured on the job and seek compensation for lost wages or medical care.
Disputes with insurance companies over denied claims, including auto, health, or property insurance.
Defending clients in cases where they are being pursued for debts, especially if there are claims of unfair practices.
Lawsuits related to injuries caused by defective products or dangerous goods.
Large lawsuits involving multiple plaintiffs against a common defendant, often corporations.
Representing individuals denied disability benefits or appealing SSDI cases.
Cases involving discrimination, unlawful arrest, police misconduct, or other civil rights violations.
Lawsuits over harm caused by environmental pollution or exposure to toxic chemicals (asbestos, lead, etc.).
Patent infringement cases where damages are sought from the defendant.
In some property damage or title disputes, lawyers may work on contingency if significant financial damages are involved.
Disputes over unpaid wages, including unpaid overtime or wage theft.
In some rare cases, lawyers working on behalf of creditors or debtors may operate on contingency, especially if asset recovery is involved.
For individuals harmed by long-term exposure to harmful chemicals in their workplace or community.
Contingency fees may sometimes be used for copyright or trademark infringement cases where significant damages are expected.
Cases involving individuals or groups who have been defrauded by businesses or service providers.
Legal disputes involving discriminatory practices in renting, selling, or financing housing.
Lawyers representing victims of workplace sexual harassment or assault may work on contingency.
Cases where a death is caused by someone’s negligence or intentional harm.
