Our unique focus is on dealing with insurance companies. Many personal injury firms settle quickly to avoid the work of preparing a case for trial or the costs of trial.

4. Do you charge any upfront fees to start a case?

Generally, we do not do this. We usually work under a contingency fee arrangement. In simple terms, you do not have to pay anything upfront to engage us. We pay and take the risk on the costs of building your case experts, filing fees, and investigation costs. We get paid only if we recover money for you in a settlement or a court decision. Therefore, no matter what their financial status is, everyone can get legal representation at the highest level.

5. Does your firm have experience taking cases all the way to a jury trial?

Yes. While many firms advertise as “trial lawyers” but settle 100% of their cases, Bidegaray Law Firm has a proven track record of taking cases to verdict. Insurance companies keep data on which law firms actually go to court and which ones fold. Because they know we are fully prepared to pick a jury and fight for a verdict, they are often more willing to offer a fair settlement to avoid facing us in the courtroom.
