How Medical Malpractice Lawyers Are Compensated

In choosing a medical malpractice lawyer, it is important to understand the injury attorney's experience in injury law, particularly medical malpractice. However, it is equally important to fully understand how the attorney and law firm will be compensated.

The St Louis medical malpractice attorneys at Millikan & Wright LLC do not charge their clients any fees or costs upfront for a medical malpractice lawsuit. Our experienced injury attorneys charge a small percentage of the damages awarded to their clients once a settlement of damages has been reached.

It is important that the attorney you choose to represent a medical malpractice claim has the financial resources to absorb the costs associated with pursuing such a lawsuit. Medical negligence claims can be expensive to pursue as there are many costs, such as:

  • Securing experts to testify (includes expert fees, travel, etc.)
  • Creation of documents, images, computer graphics, and other visual aides used in court
  • Securing and preserving evidence
  • Depositions and legal research

Millikan Wright LLC has experience in complex medical malpractice cases. Our results demonstrate our committment to helping families recover and heal from an injury or wrongful death. We work only on a contingency fee basis, which means no cost to you until we secure a financial settlement. If we do not win the case, we absorb the entire cost.
