With MacDonald & Swan, there is no charge or fee, whatsoever, for an informative, initial consultation about your personal injury situation.
If, after the initial consultation, we agree together to pursue a claim on your behalf, you will find there are two types of costs associated with this effort.
The first type of costs are the fees for the legal expertise and services provided. These fees are agreed to - with you - in advance of beginning the process and will not be charged to you until a settlement of the claim.
The second type of costs are called "disbursements". Disbursements are expenditures made to prepare your case. Often these involve charges of expert witnesses or specialists. In general, MacDonald & Swan will cover these fees on your behalf until resolution of the case. In some situations, you may be asked to make a modest contribution to these fees in advance of resolution. If so, MacDonald & Swan will obtain your agreement to these fees before any expenditure is made.
