Frequently Asked Questions
At the Paine Law Firm, we put our clients first. We know that everyone is busy, but an injured person is relying on their lawyer and deserves to know what’s going on with their case every step of the way. Our staff has handled hundreds of cases and we have over a decade of personal injury experience (much longer in the legal industry), so we are in a great position to know how to best handle your case. We know our clients and their cases, and we never stop fighting to get our clients every single dollar they deserve.
We handle cases on a contingency fee basis, which means you only pay us if and when we get you money. To put it simply, if you do not collect, you do not have to pay us a dime. Upon the completion of the case, we get a percentage of the settlement or verdict.
