The Baker & Baker law firm works strictly on a contingency fee basis. All initial potential client consultations are free of charge. If he accepts your case and does not produce a jury verdict in your favor or an out of court settlement that you approve then there is no fee or costs payable to him or his firm.

If the firm does not accept your case then please do not be offended. The firm accepts only select cases involving violations of the applicable medical standards of care that result in very serious injury or death.
