How Much Do Most Personal Injury Lawyers Charge in Texas?

If you’ve been injured in an accident in Texas, one of the first questions that might come to mind is, “How much will a personal injury lawyer cost me?” The good news is that in most cases, you won’t pay anything upfront—and you only pay if your lawyer wins your case.

The Contingency Fee Model in Texas

Most personal injury lawyers in Texas, including Marshal Bridges and the team at Marshal Law Firm, work on what’s called a contingency fee basis. This means:

  • No upfront costs to hire the attorney
  • No hourly billing—you never get charged by the hour for phone calls, emails, or meetings
  • Only pay if you win—the lawyer’s fee comes out of your settlement or court award

Typical Percentage for Personal Injury Cases

In Texas, contingency fees for personal injury cases generally range between 33% to 40% of the total recovery. The exact percentage often depends on factors such as:

  • The complexity of the case
  • Whether the case settles before filing a lawsuit
  • Whether the case goes to trial

For example, if your lawyer secures a $100,000 settlement and their contingency fee is 33%, they would receive $33,000, and you would keep the remaining amount (minus case expenses, which are typically discussed upfront).

Why the Contingency Fee System Benefits Clients

This fee structure is designed to remove financial barriers for injury victims. You don’t need to worry about paying a lawyer when you’re already dealing with medical bills, lost income, and recovery. Instead, your attorney is fully invested in getting you the highest possible compensation—because their success is directly tied to yours.
