What it Means to Be a “No-Win, No-Fee” Personal Injury Attorney

It is not an uncommon question among individuals interested in pursuing a personal injury claim in Michigan to ask “How much is it going to cost me?” or “How much do you charge?” In fact, this is one of the most frequently asked questions we receive from victims and their families. Many people fear the cost of hiring an experienced attorney will be a financial burden.

At Goodman Acker P.C., we represent our clients under a contingency fee agreement, generally referred to as a “no-win, no-fee” agreement. This means you do not pay any fees or costs whatsoever until we win or settle your case. We also do not charge any upfront costs. Our firm will review your case for free, investigate your claim on our dime, and advance any costs associated with pursuing your case, such as witness fees, court reporter fees, deposition costs and more.
