If you have been injured in an accident, you may be entitled to recover money for the damage that you suffered. To find out, you should consult an Accident-Personal Injury lawyer.

Some Accident-Personal Injury lawyers are experienced in handling certain types of cases. For example: medical malpractice cases. Since medical malpractice cases involve claims against doctors, nurses, physician-assistants, hospitals, and other medical facilities, it is helpful for the lawyer to have had experience with these cases. Other such cases may involve dangerous products, machine accidents and aviation accidents.

Some lawyers are experienced in “mass tort claims” in which numerous people have suffered similar injuries due to the wrongdoing of the same company or companies. Examples of the types of companies that have been sued in these actions have been pharmaceutical companies, chemical companies, airline and railroad companies.

People who retain accident and personal injury lawyers often do not have to pay a lawyer’s fee from their own funds because the lawyer’s fee is paid out of the money recovered in the case. The percentage of the fee is often set by state law or by local custom.
