Changing personal injury lawyer?
Hello,
I suffered a serious injury and currently dissatisfied with my lawyer. For one, I have not even had a chance to speak with a lawyer. It is always some assistant and it has been about two months. They seem to not care much about my property damage and leaving me to handle that myself. I just don’t like the way they have handled things.
My question.
What are the issues of payment when changing lawyers? I know I will have to pay something to the first lawyer and they both would be working on a contingency basis. Anyone know how this works?
Talked to lawyer regarding car accident. Does what he say sound weird?
I talked to a lawyer regarding a car accident my wife was in last week. Basically, a drunk driver rear ended her on the freeway. He does not have insurance. Luckily we have uninsured motorist insurance.
What the lawyer said was that she could go to a “special car accident clinic” to get treatment. There is no cost up front.
The lawyer would then ask our insurance company to pay for medical bills from this clinic (let’s say they’re $10,000).
After our insurance company agrees to pay us the $10,000, he goes back to the clinic which will then only take, let’s say, $4,000 as payment. We would then keep the $6,000 difference minus the lawyer’s cut.
Is this commonplace? The lawyer assured us this is “how the system works”.
Also, if the insurance company, for whatever reason, decides to not pay the medical bills, would we be stuck with the bill or would it work like with a lawyer where they only get payed if there is a settlement?
Thanks in advance.

should i contact a lawyer for a recent car accident?
today i got into a car accident. my 2007 yaris which i have had for less than a month was side swiped by a delivery truck which in turn made me crash into another car. the impact from the delivery truck made me lose control and slam right into a the steel bar hitch on a lifted truck. the damage to my car is pretty bad. so far i am uninjured with a little pain in my back side. should i seek legal action for this collision. i have never been in an accident before and this is causing me a great deal of distress because the car is probably totaled and i cant make it to work. the accident was the truck drivers fault, he even acknowledged he heard my horn. what should i do?

How much can I expect a lawyer to charge to write a letter on my behalf?
I am a small business owner and I’ve got a customer who refuses to pay for services rendered. The customer and I both signed a contract, so she was well aware of the price. She’s been delaying payment for several months, putting me under increasing financial strain.
I know lawyer’s fees probably vary by location, experience, etc.
But as a ballpark, what do you think I could expect to pay for a lawyer to write a letter to the customer on my behalf?
What kind of fees could I expect for a consultation?
