Typically, when one hires an attorney to perform legal work the client can be presented with several different methods of payment. Some attorneys work on a flat fee basis which is based on the specifics of the legal issue. This type of fee arrangement may include assistance with simple or routine legal forms. More common are time based fees, where the client pays the attorney to work on an hourly basis. In this instance, the client pays the attorney a "retainer" fee or a certain sum to be billed against. Then there are contingency fees. With a contingent fee, the attorney shares the risk with the client. If there is no settlement or court award then the client does not owe the attorney anything for his work. If the case does produce a monetary settlement or award then the attorney charges an agreed upon percentage as their fee for representing the clients case. These fees are not fixed by law and may be the subject of negotiation between the personal injury attorney and personal injury client. The contingent fee is an important vehicle in securing an accident victim the personal injury attorney of their choice. Financial inability does not stand in the way of the accident victim securing the personal injury attorney of their choice as the contingency fee arrangement allows any accident or injury victim, even those without funds, to retain an attorney to represent them.

Understanding Contingency Fees

The victim of a personal injury should thoroughly discuss any potential fee arrangements with their prospective attorney. This discussion will ensure that the accident victim has a complete and total understanding of the attorney's fees, and how those fees will be calculated. All reputable personal injury lawyers will gladly take the requisite time to ensure that their clients understand the process.

Contingency fees can vary depending on the legal situation. Many times, an attorney will charge a lower percentage of the total recovery if a case is able to be settled out of court. The contingent fee percentage of recovery will usually increase if a case cannot be settled and goes into litigation. The contingent fee for a minor (person under 18 years of age) will be set by the court. In the event that a case involving a minor is brought before the court for approval, the court is asked to review and approve the settlement through a procedure called a "minor's compromise". This aids in the protection of the minor, and applies to personal injury cases, both big and small. When dealing with medical malpractice cases in California there is a statute that places a fixed cap percentage as the maximum that may be charged as the contingent fee.

The claimant asked for a settlement of 6,500 from Admiral who agreed to pay only 548 for the damage to his car. The matter therefore went to court where the judge dismissed the claimants' version of events and instead of awarding him a payout of several thousand pounds, ordered his side to pay the legal costs bill of up to 40,000.

Barclays Insurance Services carried out research into the causes of whiplash and found that although there are many cases of genuine injury, a majority of drivers and passengers in cars don't help themselves by not adjusting their headrests to help them limit any impact suffered.

ABI said that although the majority of people recover from whiplash injuries relatively quickly, some cases can lead to 'significant long term problems' like disabling pain and depression.

This claim was backed up by figures released by the motor industry's research centre, Thatcham, who indicate that 72 per cent of front seat occupants fail to do this.

A spokesman for Admiral said, "We are obviously concerned about people faking whiplash, as the more money we pay out for bogus claims, the more money genuine people have to pay for their insurance. Whiplash is such a difficult thing to prove that someone hasn't had."

Staging a car accident is the new way criminals are trying to exploit the insurance system. This practice involves people deliberately setting up a road smash in order for them to make a claim for injury and damage to their vehicle. Witness statements will often be sought, but these onlookers are likely to be in on the scam according to industry experts.

Admiral Insurance has recently been involved in such a court case with a driver claiming to have suffered whiplash after his car was hit from behind by another vehicle.

Claims for whiplash cost the insurance industry up to 1.6 billion a year, with 250,000 people saying to have been affected by it annually; 2,000 of these are left with permanent disabilities.

Insurance Companies Fight Back Against Fraudulent Whiplash Claims

The Association of British Insurers (ABI) announced the development of a new aid to help insurers' spot people who had suffered potentially serious neck injuries more quickly to enable them to receive the best medical care as soon as possible.

Whiplash injuries account for 80 per cent of all car accident claims in the UK, but the number of bogus cases is on the increase according to Admiral Insurance.

Insurance Companies Fight Back Against Fraudulent Whiplash Claims

Malcolm Tarling, a spokesman for ABI said, "Insurers are determined to do all they can to expose these cheats so that more time can be given to treating genuine whiplash claimants."
