Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to pay right away?

No fees are paid until you collect. Romanucci & Blandin advances all costs, and there is never a fee until you are compensated for your injuries at the end of the case. You pay nothing up front or during the legal process.

What if we don't win my case?

If there is no recovery, you pay no legal fees.

Will I have to go to trial?

Probably not. Most cases settle prior to trial. However, preparation for trial is essential to obtain the maximum settlement value.

How long will it take to settle my case?

Each and every case is different. Once of our attorneys will discuss how long settlement is likely to take in your particular case.

I've just been injured, should I file a lawsuit?

It is vital to wait until you complete your medical treatment and know the full extent of your injuries before attempting settlement, but understanding your legal options at this point is a good next step.

What if English is not my first language?

We are able to work with clients from any community with the help of translators. Language should not be a barrier to justice.

How do I get started?
