Philadelphia Personal Injury Lawyers Frequently Asked Questions

Question:  Can I try to settle my case myself?

Answer:  Certainly, but the insurance companies have one goal, which is to pay you as little money as possible.  You have no bargaining power, as you are not a lawyer who can sue them.  Also, there are usually multiple insurance policies to collect from, and the insurance companies certainly won’t inform you of this fact.  Our Philadelphia personal injury lawyers will get you maximum compensation from all eligible insurance policies.

Question:  Can I talk with a personal injury lawyer for free?

Answer:  All consultations with our Philadelphia personal injury attorneys are completely free.

Question:  Is there any fee if my case is not good and I don’t win? 

Answer:  There is absolutely no fee charged by our Philadelphia personal injury lawyers unless money is recovered for you.

Question:  What fee is deducted when you do settle the case

Answer:  Our Philadelphia personal injury attorneys only deduct a small 29% fee.  The standard fee deducted by those other law firms is 45%.  Don’t get hurt twice by having another firm deduct a ridiculously huge fee.

Question:  If I have already signed up with a lawyer charging an astronomical fee, can I switch lawyers?

Answer:  You may switch lawyers at any time, despite any documents you may have signed with your lawyer.  We will simply reimburse your lawyer for any costs incurred from our 29% fee, thus, you lose no money to switch lawyers, and you obtain a larger payout percentage, which usually amounts to tens of thousands of dollars more which goes into your pocket.

Question:  Is my settlement tax free?

Answer:  Not necessarily, however, our knowledgeable Philadelphia personal injury lawyers will structure the settlement so that it is 100 percentage tax free.

Question:  Is it necessary to come into your office to meet with you if I live outside of Philadelphia?

Answer:  No, cases are easily handled over the phone.  Our personal injury lawyers take cases throughout the state of Pennsylvania, and overnight you your settlement check when it comes in.

Question:  Can I come into your office without an appointment?

Answer:  Yes, come to 1515 Market Street, go up the elevator to the 15th floor, and go into Suite 1510.  Ask our receptionist to speak to our intake manager, Marilyn, and let her know that attorney Chris Lassen has authorized the low fee of 29% to be deducted from your settlement.

Question:  How long will it take to get my money?

Answer:  With simple accident cases, we usually get you your money in a few weeks, and we can overnight you your settlement check.  With medical malpractice cases and more complex cases it may take several months or longer, however, our lawyers expedite all cases.

Question: Will my case have to go to trial?

Answer:  99% of cases are settled without the need to go to trial.  Our Philadelphia personal injury attorneys hound the insurance companies for a large settlement for you.

Question:  What is the difference between full tort and limited tort in Pennsylvania?

Answer:  When you take the limited tort option, it generally prevents you from getting money for your pain and suffering, versus full tort in which you can recover money for your pain and suffering.  However, there are many exceptions to this rule, and the Philadelphia personal injury attorneys at the Lassen Law Firm very frequently can get you money even if you have selected the full tort provision.

Question: What is uninsured motorist coverage in Pennsylvania?

Answer: Uninsured motorist coverage is insurance you may elect to carry on your own insurance policy which pays for your injuries if the other driver has no insurance.

Question:  What is underinsured motorist coverage in Pennsylvania?

Answer: Underinsured motorist coverage is insurance you may elect to carry on your own insurance policy which pays for your injuries in the event that the other driver does not have large enough insurance coverage amounts.

Question:  Why should I use the Philadelphia personal injury attorneys from the Lassen Law Firm versus another firm?

Answer:  People use the Lassen Law Firm not only because of the extremely low 29% fee, but because the personal injury lawyers at the Lassen Law Firm are known for expediting the settlements, so you get your money extremely fast.  We hound the insurance companies on a daily basis, and, as we all know, the squeaky wheel gets the grease.
