A: Most attorneys take on cases such as yours as contingency, so you usually do not pay anything unless the attorney gets you something. However, an attorney would need to review your case to know if you have a strong enough case to take it, as here you indicate there is a dispute as to liability. Use the find a lawyer link above to search for a personal injury attorney in your area to talk to, as most offer free initial consultations.
