What will it cost to file a lawsuit?

The Depew Law Firm, P.C. handles personal injury lawsuits on a contingency. That means you will pay nothing unless and until we have recovered money for you. We will pay all the costs and expenses needed to prepare your case for trial and you will have no out of pocket costs. Only when money is recovered will we receive attorney's fees and expenses. If no money is recovered from the defendant, you owe us nothing.

How do I know if my situation will hold up in court?

There are numerous factors that could determine whether you have a situation that entitles you to recover damages. The team at The Depew Law Firm can evaluate your case for FREE with no obligation. There are several pieces of evidence that need to be apparent to result in a successful personal injury case. You must have proof that there was fault on the part of the defendant. Fault might be established through negligence, or in product liability cases by proving that product was unreasonably dangerous. In maritime cases, fault can be established through negligence and sometimes through the doctrine of unseaworthiness. If you sustained an injury that affected your ability to work or enjoy life as you did before the injury, and this injury resulted from the fault of another party, you may be entitled to recover damages.
