You have probably seen or heard that personal injury lawyers get paid on a contingency fee basis. But what does that mean? It means that you do not pay me by the hour for my services. When we settle your case or win at trial, my fees are 33% of the total amount we win in your case.

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009Do You Have Uninsured Motorist Coverage?
Thursday, November 5th, 2009According to a recent Denver Post article there are up to 225,000 Colorado drivers who are driving without valid licenses. This number does not address the fact that up to a third of Colorado drivers have no automobile insurance. Not only do these drivers pose a risk to you and your family’s safety, they also pose a risk to your financial security. If you are in an automobile or motorcycle accident your medical bills can be in the tens of thousands of dollars. If the person who hit you has little ($25,000.00) or no insurance your options maybe limited on how much you can recover.
One of the best ways to protect against uninsured drivers is to have Uninsured Motorist Coverage on your automobile insurance. My advice is to get as much Uninsured Motorist Coverage that you can afford. In the past year alone, we have had to make uninsured motorist claims for close to 50% of our clients.
So protect yourself and get uninsured motorist coverage today.
