I
am California victim's
lawyer Stephen G. Root.
If you have
been injured in an accident
that was partly or completely
someone else's fault,
I can help you. This
page explains how you
do not need insurance
or money to retain me
for your claim.
Free
Initial Consultation
I provide a free, no-pressure
consultation on whether
I might be able to obtain
a settlement or award
for you. You do not
need any insurance to
retain me.
Fees
Paid from Recovery
I am a California licensed
attorney, and my fees
and costs advanced are
paid as a percentage
of any settlement or
award I obtain for you.
If I am not able to
obtain any recovery
for you, you will not
owe me any fees. In
some situations, there
may be court costs for
which you are responsible.
I will discuss these
situations with you
and give you a clearly
written agreement that
explains all fees and
costs.
As an experienced attorney,
I can generally obtain
a settlement that is
larger than what a victim
could have obtained
if he or she negotiated
their own case, even
AFTER my fees are paid
from the settlement.
This is because insurance
companies usually will
only pay fair settlements
after they know a skilled,
experienced lawyer is
handling the claim.
Insurance companies
are aware that only
an attorney can obtain
a good recovery at trial,
and this motivates them
to pay a settlement
that is substantially
more than they will
offer a victim negotiating
his or her own case.
