Most car accident cases are taken on a contingency basis, where the lawyer takes a percentage of the settlement or award. The percentage varies. If your attorney charges 40% and you want to negotiate a lower percentage, you may try to do that.

Will you lose anything if get your attorney to agree to a lower fee? No. The attorney owes the same duties to you as he or she owes to a higher-paying client. A good lawyer will investigate and research your case, file all the papers on time, attend court hearings, file and argue motions, take and defend depositions and communicate with you about the case. The attorney should take the case to trial if warranted or else negotiate a reasonable settlement, regardless of the fee. An experienced attorney negotiates ably and creatively to win you the largest settlement possible. That may be worth a higher percentage fee in the long run.
