While the most expensive attorney may not be practice, the least expensive may not provide you the level of expertise and knowledge that you need to get a satisfactory settlement. Always compare several attorneys and go for a free consultation before deciding which attorney is right for you.

Billing will vary between attorneys with some billing by the hour while others may bill on a flat rate or still others on a percentage of the settlement. If you can't afford a retainer, the attorney that charges on a percentage of the settlement may be the best option.

A motorcycle accident attorney should be able to let you know what the approximate or reasonable settlement for your case may be. If you interview several attorneys look for those that are in the range of what the other attorneys are recommending, not the one attorney that promises the amount that you think is the ideal.
