The personal injury cases at Oren & Oren, Inc., are handled on a contingent fee basis, meaning you do not pay attorney fees unless your case is resolved.

Personal injury case costs are normally paid by the attorney’s law firm and will be reimbursed by the client at the time of settlement. Oren & Oren, Inc., includes in its contingent fee contract a provision stating that we will advance the costs in your case. You do not have to worry about the costs of pursuing your case, such as court filing fees, costs of investigation, or hiring a medical expert.

The cost of pursuing a case varies depending on its stage of settlement. The initial costs of pursuing a case can be rather minimal. Some cases require a lawsuit to be filed or expert testimony to settle. The costs of investigation, hiring an engineer, filing documents with the court, and obtaining medical reports can add up. If trial is required to settle your case, the cost can significantly increase. A trial often requires the retaining of experts, advancing fees for the testimony of expert witnesses (physicians, chiropractors, engineers, etc. . .), and increased court fees. By the time of trial, a case will have been closely studied and the possibilities for success discussed with the client. It is important that every client know the potential costs if their case goes to trial. The costs incurred for trial are not prohibitive for the attorneys of Oren & Oren, Inc. However, by the time a case is set for trial in the Superior Court, it should be a consideration to any client and discussed openly with your attorney.
