What to Do When You Can’t Afford an Injury Attorney

If you’ve been hurt in a car accident, and you can’t afford a personal injury attorney, here is a pointer as to what to do as soon as possible: Go hire a personal injury attorney. You can’t afford not to.

When you hire a personal injury attorney, you should never pay any money upfront. You’ll never pay any money out of your pocket, ever. You don’t actually we an attorney any money until they collect the money from an insurance company for your injuries. Now, you might be telling yourself, well, how does an injury attorney get paid then? 

Contingency Fee

We get paid by insurance companies, it’s called a contingency fee. We get a percentage of the amount that we eventually get that insurance company to pay for your injuries. The next question you may be asking yourself is, well why would I go hire an attorney and pay any percentage of my claim when I can do it all myself and keep 100%?

Here’s what we say – the insurance company knows you’re not an attorney. They have attorneys, and when they know you’re not an attorney, they win. There’s no threat of litigation to make that insurance company do the right thing and pay the right amount for your injuries. You can handle your own claim, but consider this: a large majority of a watermelon is way better than 100% of a strawberry.

When you work with Carrollton Injury Law, we’re going to evaluate your claim upfront to make sure it’s profitable. Not just profitable for the firm, but profitable for you as the client as well. We want to be able to justify our fee so that even after paying the firm’s fee, you’re going to have more money in your pocket than if you handle your injury claim yourself. 

Even if we decide not to work together, we will give you some pointers so that insurance company doesn’t take advantage of you. The bottom line is, we want you to focus on getting better. We want you to get back to your work, get back to your family, and get back to your life.

If you’ve been hurt in a car accident, please call us today to schedule your free claim evaluation.

Carrollton Injury Lawyer Joel Hudson

Thank you for taking the time to visit my website. I’m Joel Hudson, the founder of Carrollton Injury Law, located at 4221 Medical Pkwy, Suite 300, Carrollton, TX 75010.

With over 25 years of experience practicing personal injury law, I’ve built my firm on a simple belief: there’s a better way to handle injury claims. It starts with treating you like a person—not a number—and continues with consistent communication throughout your entire case. You can reach me directly at (972) 360-9898 to discuss your situation—I’m here to listen.

I’ve seen how a single injury can ripple through every part of your life, affecting not just you but your family too. That’s why my approach is different. At Carrollton Injury Law, we don’t just chase settlements; we focus on you. I’ve found that giving clients the extra attention many Dallas law firms overlook leads to happier clients, smoother dealings with adjusters who appreciate the updates, and, ultimately, higher injury settlements in less time. My clients often call me the “personal” attorney because we care about maximizing your recovery while also helping you navigate the disruptions a car accident or injury brings—whether it’s medical bills, lost work, or simply getting back to normal.

I earned my Juris Doctor from Texas A&M University School of Law in 1998, after completing my Bachelor of Arts in Communications and Business at Texas Christian University in 1992. Since being admitted to practice in Texas in 1998, I’ve dedicated my career to fighting for injury victims across the state.

At Carrollton Injury Law, we live by our motto: “We put Personal back into Personal Injury Law.” It’s not just a tagline—it’s how we work, every day, for every client.

If you’re ready to talk about your injury claim or just need some guidance, don’t hesitate to get in touch. I’m here to help you take the first step toward justice and recovery.
