        "text": "Most medical negligence lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. This means you do not pay upfront legal fees. Instead, the attorney's payment is a percentage of the compensation you receive if your case is successful, either through a settlement or a court award. If your case is not successful, you typically do not owe attorney fees. This arrangement allows individuals who might not otherwise afford legal representation to pursue justice.",
