Most medical malpractice lawyers in Iowa work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they take a percentage of your recovery if you win. Typical contingency fees range from 33% to 40% of the settlement or verdict. You may also be responsible for case costs such as expert witness fees, medical record copying, and filing fees, which can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars. Some lawyers advance these costs and deduct them from your recovery. This is general information and not legal advice.
