Denver Car Accident Lawyer - No Upfront Cost | Contingency Fee Explained 

5 min read 

# Denver Car Accident Lawyer: No Upfront Cost

**Quick Answer:** At the Law Office of Brad Freedberg, you pay absolutely nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means our fee comes only from your settlement or verdict if we win. If we don't recover money for you, you pay nothing. This removes the financial barrier to getting experienced legal representation after a car accident.

## How Contingency Fees Work

Many accident victims worry they can't afford an attorney. The contingency fee model eliminates this concern entirely.

### What Is a Contingency Fee?

A contingency fee means:

-   **No upfront payment required**
-   **No hourly billing**
-   **Our fee is a percentage of your recovery**
-   **If we don't win, you don't pay attorney fees**

### How the Process Works

1\. **Free Consultation**: We evaluate your case at no cost 2. **Case Acceptance**: If we take your case, we advance all costs 3. **Investigation & Negotiation**: We build your case and fight for you 4. **Resolution**: We recover compensation through settlement or trial 5. **Payment**: Our fee comes from your recovery; remainder goes to you

### What Percentage Do Attorneys Take?

Typical contingency fees range from 33% to 40%, depending on:

-   Case complexity
-   Whether the case goes to trial
-   The specific agreement with your attorney

**We're transparent about fees from day one.** Before you sign anything, you'll understand exactly how compensation works.

### What About Case Expenses?

Personal injury cases involve costs like:

-   Medical record retrieval
-   Expert witness fees
-   Court filing fees
-   Investigation costs
-   Deposition expenses

At our firm, we advance these costs. They're reimbursed from your settlement only if we win.

## Why Contingency Fees Benefit You

### Levels the Playing Field

Insurance companies have unlimited resources. Contingency fees ensure you can access experienced legal representation regardless of your financial situation.

### Aligns Our Interests

When we only get paid if you win, our success is tied to yours. We're motivated to maximize your recovery.

### No Financial Risk

You're never out of pocket. If the case doesn't succeed, you owe nothing for attorney fees.

## Real Value of an Attorney

Studies consistently show that accident victims with attorneys recover significantly more than those without—even after attorney fees.

**Average settlements with attorney representation are 3-4x higher than without.**

## Free Consultation - No Obligation

Still have questions about costs? Call Brad Freedberg at (303) 892-0900 for a completely free consultation. We'll explain exactly how the process works and evaluate your case—with no pressure and no obligation.

**You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.**

## Frequently Asked Questions

Do I pay anything for the initial consultation? 

No. Your initial consultation is completely free. We'll review your case, answer your questions, and explain your options with no cost or obligation.

What if my case is unsuccessful? 

Are there any hidden fees I should know about?
