A personal injury accident in Florida can be extremely traumatic and devastating on many levels. In both the short-term and long-term, the aftermath can include hefty bills for emergency treatment, expensive care, lost wages, and even lost employment. This is a significant hardship for many individuals and families in South Florida.
At Lisa S. Levine P.A., we understand that the situation you are in is far from easy. This is why we make it our priority to ease your burden wherever possible. We promise you that we will not take any upfront attorney fees for your case, unless a recovery is made. While we fight on your behalf, you can focus on recovering physically and mentally from the auto accident.
Why Work on Contingency Fee Basis?
Law firms work on different payment systems when taking on civil cases. When it comes to personal injury cases, we have found that it is essential to work on a contingency fee basis. For our clients, this eases any worry of having to find a way to make upfront payments, on top of paying for medical bills.
Injury Victim
When an attorney works on a contingency fee basis, you have more assurance that they are working hard on your behalf. After all, they will not see a single dime unless your case is resolved. This also helps them focus on helping you receive the maximum recovery possible to address all of the losses you have sustained.
However, at Lisa S. Levine P.A. this motivation is unnecessary. We are always focused on helping you achieve your legal goals, and will do everything in our power to help you successfully obtain a recovery for your Fort Lauderdale auto accident claim.
We Do Not Cut Corners
As with all businesses, you will find some that are focused on quantity rather than quality. By taking more volume, they hope to maximize their profits. That is never the case at Lisa S. Levine P.A..
Because we only take select cases, we are able to provide our clients with the full attention and dedication that their case deserves. This also allows us to devote our resources into building a strong, proactive case from the moment you choose to hire our firm.
With auto accident cases in particular, it is essential to establish liability and help the insurance company understand that it is in their best interests to honor their policies. In building a case, it can sometimes be an asset to consult with outside experts. Accident reconstructionists, physicians, physical therapists, and even economists can play several important roles, including:
- Showing that the other party was liable for the accident;
- Proving that the injuries sustained were a result of the accident;
- Valuing the financial costs of the injuries; and
- Determining the long-term financial impact of loss of employment.
There are many more ways an attorney can strengthen your case that may involve spending more time and resources. The stronger a case is, the more likely you will be able to obtain a recovery from the other party that provides you with the most compensation to address your losses. You can rest assured that we will devote the time, resources, and energy necessary at every stage of your case.

How Our Process Works
Step 1: Free Consultation
Your journey with us begins with a no-cost, no-obligation consultation. During this initial meeting, we’ll listen to your story, review the details of your case, and discuss your legal options. This is your opportunity to ask questions and get a sense of how we can help you without worrying about any upfront costs.
We know how stressful it can be to navigate legal matters after an injury, so our goal during this consultation is to make you feel comfortable and informed. You’ll leave knowing exactly what to expect moving forward.
Step 2: Signing the Contingency Fee Agreement
If you decide to move forward, we’ll agree on a contingency fee — a percentage of the compensation we recover on your behalf. This agreement is clear and transparent, so you know from the start how much you’ll pay if we win your case. There are no hidden fees or unexpected costs.
From this point on, you can focus on your recovery while we handle all the legal details. You don’t pay anything out of pocket — our payment depends entirely on your success.
Step 3: Investigating and Building Your Case
We’ll start by conducting a thorough investigation into your injury, gathering all the necessary evidence to build a strong case. This may involve working with experts, interviewing witnesses, and reviewing medical records—all at no cost to you.
Throughout this process, we’ll keep you informed about the progress of your case. You’ll always know what’s happening, and we’ll be here to answer any questions or address any concerns.
Step 4: Negotiation and Settlement or Trial
We’ll negotiate with the responsible parties and insurance companies to secure the maximum compensation you deserve. Our goal is to settle your case quickly and fairly, but if the offers aren’t satisfactory, we’re fully prepared to take your case to trial.
Step 5: Conclusion and Payment
If your case is successful, we will deduct our agreed-upon contingency fee from the settlement or verdict. You’ll receive the remaining compensation, which can help cover medical bills, lost wages, and other expenses.
Your Peace of Mind
Throughout the entire process, we cover all the upfront costs, including filing fees, expert witness fees, and other expenses related to your case. You won’t have to worry about any financial obligations until we’ve successfully resolved your case.
We take on the financial risk because we believe in your case. Our success is tied to yours, so you can trust that we’ll work tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome.
