Most mesothelioma lawyers in Illinois work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay no upfront fees and the lawyer only gets paid if you win your case. Typical contingency fees range from 25 percent to 40 percent of the settlement or verdict. Costs for court filings and expert witnesses may be deducted from your award. This is general information and not legal advice.
