Our No Fee Promise: The Fetterman & Associates Guide to Winning Your Case

The weeks following a Palm Beach car accident are never easy. You’re in pain, you’re calling insurance adjusters and maybe avoiding calls from medical billing offices. The fact is, you’re scared—and you’re afraid to ask for a lawyer’s help because it would be just one more bill to pay.

What We Do

At Fetterman and Associates, we understand our client’s reluctance to take on another bill following an accident. That’s why we stand by our No-Fee Promise: we don’t get paid unless you receive a settlement in your case. When we take your case, we not only offer the highest quality legal representation, but we pay all filing costs and expenses. When you receive your settlement, only then will you ever pay any legal fees.

How Does our No-Fee Promise Work?

People who file claims in court are just that: people. People with jobs, bills and the stress of daily life to attend to—while most defendants are corporations with deep pockets. Services such as billing hours and filing costs can add up before a case is even argued, placing undue stress on the injured party.

In order to ensure that an individual’s legal rights are being served regardless of the amount of money they have to fuel their case, the state of Florida has an arrangement to provide for legal fees up front. This is called a contingency fee: the law firm pays all costs of litigation up front on the client’s behalf, and the firm receives payment from the proceeds of the case settlement.

What does this mean for you? Since all of your filing services and attorney fees are paid using your settlement amount, you are not liable for any costs before you receive your settlement—and we’re personally invested to get you the amount you deserve.

How Can I Find Out More?

As longtime Florida personal injury attorneys, we know that hiring a lawyer can be difficult. There are so many to choose from—how can you narrow it down? Who is going to help you, and who is just going to take your money and leave you right back where you started?
