Attorney Fees

Our Seattle L&I Attorney Fees Are Contingency Based

At Emery | Reddy, PLLC, we put our clients first by working for them on a contingency basis. Rather than sending up-front charges or fees to our clients for our time and efforts, our expert team instead pays its legal fees through your claim itself. Contingency changes slightly based on the type of claim for which our team is representing you.

For employment matters, our legal team litigates on behalf of wronged workers, gets damages or a settlement, and our attorney fees are one-third of the total settlement amount. This means our clients aren’t on the hook for litigation fees against their employers, even if we aren’t able to win or settle.

For L&I worker’s compensation matters, our expert team represents injured workers and manages claims without charging directly for their work. Because we work on contingency, our attorney fees are ten percent of time-loss benefits and one-third of any permanent partial disability awards that may be given at the end of a claim.

Contingency works similarly if we represent our client for a third-party claim or data breach issue. When we win these cases, our attorney fees from those who have wronged our clients, rather than from our clients themselves.

At Emery | Reddy, we help workers. It’s our motto and what drives us every day. By taking our fees on contingency, we can assure our clients that they will be getting the best work from a team with a vision of success. After all, if you don’t win, neither do we. You can remain confident that we take the risks of litigation along with you and are even incentivized to do so. We understand that a client who is suing their employer for lost wages or living off a small percentage of their income from L&I time-loss may not be in a position to pay up-font charges, especially when they are unsure about their claim. At Emery | Reddy, our job is to help you obtain the payment and treatment you deserve, not to take it from you. By working on a contingency basis, we make sure that you are the ultimate winner of your case. Call us today!

How Do I Know If I Have A Labor & Industries Case?

If you have an L&I claim or wonder if you have an injury case, ask yourself the following:

• Have you been denied the medical care benefits to which you are legally entitled?
• Has L&I asked you to undergo an Independent Medical Exam (IME)?
• Do you have questions about the L&I claim process that you don’t understand?

If any of the above apply to you, you may have a case!

Navigating an L&I claim can be difficult and very time-consuming, especially when you’re ill or injured. You want to focus on healing and make sure your bills are paid, but if you don’t file things properly or on time, your health, home, and job could be in jeopardy. Many individuals miss out on much-needed L&I benefits because they don’t understand what to do or how to get the most compensation for their injuries. If you are experiencing any challenges in your case, a labor and industries attorney can assist you. By contacting Emery | Reddy as soon as possible after you’ve been injured, we can help you avoid the common pitfalls of filing an L&I claim. Our Seattle L&I attorneys are here for you every step of the way.

Do I Need To Hire An Employment Law Or L&I Attorney?

An attorney can help you determine if you have a case, and what your options are. If needed, they can help you bring the case to court or help you negotiate a deal with your employer without ever stepping into a courtroom.

The law is complicated and can be overwhelming for anyone not familiar with it. Trying to hold a company accountable for bad business practices requires a skilled attorney on your side to navigate the different laws and tactics an employer may use.
