What Is a Contingency Fee?

We Stand By Our No-Fee Guarantee

If you’ve been injured, you might be concerned about the cost of hiring a lawyer. How can you afford an attorney on top of unexpected medical bills and lost wages?

Injury At Sea works on a contingency fee basis, meaning that you won’t pay us anything unless we win your case. During your initial case evaluation, which we offer at absolutely no cost and no obligation to you, we can explain your legal options, what steps you should take, and how to proceed with your claim. If and when you decide to work with our firm, you can trust our attorneys to provide you with personalized attention, respect, and dignity throughout the entire process.

If nothing is recovered, there is no attorney fee – regardless of the amount of time we spend on your case. Contingency fees offer a claimant the opportunity to pursue a claim without running the risk of having to pay substantial attorney’s fees in the event the claim is lost or there is no recovery.

While every case is different (and there is no assurance that a case will result in a favorable settlement), cases are resolved favorably to the client in most circumstances. The net amount received to the client, after deduction for expenses and the contingency fee, justifies retaining an attorney under a contingency fee agreement.

We stand behind our no-fee guarantee. We would not offer this fee arrangement if we weren’t confident in your case and our ability to recover compensation for you.

Client Reviews

"Injury At Sea knows the maritime business from all angles…easy to work with, hardworking, straightforward, and professional. I was treated with care and concern. They were very helpful in my situation, told me exactly what to do, what to expect and the likely outcome. Five Stars."

“Having met with a few other attorneys who were honestly quite intimidating, I was very happy to find Sarah (I’m not from this country and was not prepared for the medical & legal processes!)! I felt like she genuinely cared about my recovery, and how I was progressing. My medical treatments took over a year, and the lengthy process of gathering statements and supporting docs, medical records, negotiating etc. meant that we were in contact for over 2 years! I was very happy with the amount we settled on after mediation. Great service, professional, compassionate, and won’t settle for less than their clients deserve 🙂 Thank you!”

“Melissa Westberg’s patience, diligence and professionalism was outstanding, but I was particularly shocked by the amount of settlement she managed to get me. I knew I was facing a particularly harsh insurer, and I did not have a huge amount of evidence for my case. An asset to your firm and a pleasure to deal with, I will be recommending Melissa Westberg whenever possible.”
– F.W.
“Melissa right away came to meet us and gave us her undivided attention and was eager to hear what happened. She made the process easy and simple us to understand. During our case Melissa always stayed in contact. She was always available for any questions we had. The one thing that we really enjoyed and loved about Melissa was [that] she cared. That’s the reason we referred Melissa to our son and anyone else they wants a attorney who cares for the people they are representing. Thank you Melissa for your time and a great job.”
– J.C.G.
“I just want to express my gratitude for your exquisite performance, research, and kindness over the last week. I truly felt that I was in good hands, and the outcome is proof of that! The last five years has been quite a journey, at times very dark, but today things feel brighter than ever. Thank you for shining a light on my story, for never wavering from your belief in me, and for 'bringing it home'. You, my friend, are the man. Thank you so very much.”

“Hiring Mr. Gooding was one of the best decisions I've made in my life. I was extremely impressed with his experience and knowledge at every stage of the proceedings. Mr. Gooding did his research and learned every little detail of my case. He was very passionate about his work. He took the extra time and effort to make sure everything was in order and correct. He also kept me informed of everything I needed to know and do to prepare for my case. James Gooding is a top-notch attorney. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney. I would higher him in a heartbeat if I was ever injured again. Thanks James for all your great work!!!”

"Matt is smart, professional and was wonderful jumping in late in the case, getting ramped up quickly. He has the knowledge and patience explaining legal questions to me. Best think is he took the time to really listen to how this accident changed my life. He fought for me, my rights, and my recovery. I am truly grateful to Matt!"

"…When they said they would not give John a liver transplant, my heart sank…for the first time in my life I hated being poor because I could not save my child. No one wants to lose a child. I sat in his hospital room and just looked at him and felt helpless that there was nothing I could do…When I was told Injury At Sea had obtained a Court Order to make the Company pay I cried tears of relief…without this my son would have had no hope of living… Thank you to Injury At Sea."
