If you don’t win, Benjamin Law charges no fees. The fee charged is on a contingency basis, that way you will pay no fees unless we recover money for you. Benjamin Law’s fees are based upon a percentage of the overall settlement.

We understand that you want to settle as quickly as possible. Depending on the complexity of your case and the severity of your injuries the time will vary. For most motor vehicle and slip and fall accidents, it takes between 1-3 years in order to achieve a fair resolution.

In a wrongful dismissal claim, it takes between 6 months to 1.5 years to resolve.

Each case is unique and we use our years of experience to get you a fair settlement as soon as possible.

Each case is different as the answer to this question depends on when your accident or dismissal occurred. Call us to find out how long you have to sue.

Predicting a specific amount is almost impossible. At Benjamin Law, we provide you with the best information and legal advice to maximize your settlement.

This is often the first thing a client wants to know. The strength of your case is largely dependent on your evidence and other written documentation. Call us for a free consultation.
