Will you have to pay your Maryland medical malpractice attorney by the hour, or is there some other type of payment arrangement that you will have to make? If you do not know the answers to these questions, you are not alone.
We have found that many people are confused, and have little understanding regarding the process for hiring a Maryland medical malpractice attorney. The short answer to the above questions is that you will have to check the terms of your fee agreement.
Your fee agreement is the contract between you and your attorney. It spells out the terms and conditions that will govern your actions and the attorney’s actions. This is why it is very important that you take the time to read and truly understand your fee agreement before you sign it.
