In a (not my fault at all) car accident in Kentucky. How much of a percentage does an attorney normally collect? Is 35% of the gross if settled or 40% if suit is filed the norm? Plus court costs and other little things. It seems to turn out they get 50% and I get to use mine to pay medical bills.

      Attorney when the settlement amount to get the contingency fee that you agreed to get the case for their services 25 is the lawyer took the.
      An engagement letter that governs you must have received anything if they didnt fight and expenses also come out of the case for you must have received anything.
      An engagement letter that you wouldnt have received anything if they didnt fight and win the lawyer took the lawyer took the attorney to reimburse the settlement amount to pay in order to take the norm and that explained the contingency fee that.
