2007-08-24 03:48:06 Do I have to pay taxes on settlements or verdicts in my favor?
*****************************************************************************
Johnson Law Group does not and cannot give tax advice. Please ask your certified tax accountant all of your questions regarding taxes.
For further information, please contact Johnson Law Group or Call 1-888-311-5522
2007-08-24 03:47:59 Why do we have to wait ten working days after my settlement check comes in?
**************************************************************************************************
Settlements, which are usually paid by check or bank draft, are deposited into Johnson Law Group’s trust account upon receipt. No checks can be written from the trust account until the settlement check has cleared the bank. After the check clears, the client receives his or her money, and then the attorneys’ fees and expenses are paid or reimbursed.
For more information, please contact Johnson Law Group or Call 1-888-311-5522
2007-08-24 03:47:51 Is a settlement a regular monthly payment?
******************************************************
Usually, but not always. Sometimes clients prefer to have their settlements paid in one lump sum, while others prefer to receive their settlement checks monthly or yearly. Feel free to consult with your attorney on this issue.
For further information, please contact Johnson Law Group or Call 1-888-311-5522
2007-08-24 03:47:37 When will I receive my money?
***************************************
It depends. If your case has been settled, your settlement can be paid only after the settlement papers have been signed and the funds have been deposited into Johnson Law Group’s trust account. If a law suit must be filed, it may be 18 months or more before a settlement can be achieved or a jury award obtained. Even then, the losing party may appeal the jury’s decision, which may mean it will take longer for you to receive your award.
For more information, please contact Johnson Law Group or Call 1-888-311-5522
2007-08-24 03:47:16 Why does the legal fee increase if we have to go to trial?
***********************************************************************
It takes much more time and effort to prepare a case for trial and to take it to trial than it does to settle, so our fee increases for trial cases.
For further information, please contact Johnson Law Group or Call 1-888-311-5522
2007-08-24 03:47:06 Do I have to pay for expenses regardless of whether we win or lose?
**************************************************************************************
No. You only pay for expenses if a recovery is made in your case.
For more details, please contact Johnson Law Group or Call 1-888-311-5522
2007-08-24 03:46:47 How much will legal representation cost me?
*********************************************************
Johnson Law Group takes cases on a contingency fee basis. This means we do not charge our clients by the hour for legal representation. Johnson Law Group only gets paid its fees and reimbursement of expenses when a recovery is made in your case. If no recovery is made, no fees or expenses are paid.
For further details, please contact Johnson Law Group or Call 1-888-311-5522

How much is my case worth?
**************************************
Unfortunately, this question cannot be answered before the case is investigated, since each case must be evaluated on an individual basis. The attorneys at Johnson Law Group are experienced in evaluating cases and will give you their opinion after an investigation has been completed. However, an exact dollar amount or a guaranteed amount will not be given at any time.

Mesothelioma in Texas 2007-08-24 03:18:35 When it comes to tricky diseases, there are few that hit families harder or surprise people more than Mesothelioma
. This disease is actually a rare form of lung cancer, but do not look to smoking for the cause. Mesothelioma is a form of lung cancer that is only caused by exposure to the material known as asbestos, which was used in many building materials and insulations until it was banned by the United States government in 1989.So to fight legally for these cases a mesothelioma lawyer is indeed a great help.
The ban on asbestos keeps it from being used in new constructions, which means that it is not currently being installed in new buildings and construction workers are not exposed to the material the way that they have been in the past. Unfortunately, the ban did not require the removal of existing asbestos materials unless they were to become exposed, which means that many Texas
buildings retain asbestos materials that could potentially pose a deadly health risk down the road.
