What this typically includes
Case screening and medical-record review, retaining medical experts, obtaining the required affidavit/certificate of merit, filing and litigating the lawsuit, negotiating with insurers, and trial. Case costs — expert witnesses, records, depositions, filing fees — are advanced by the firm and repaid from the recovery, separate from the attorney fee.
Pennsylvania does not impose a special statutory cap on medical-malpractice attorney fees, so the usual contingency of about 33–40% applies (no win, no fee). Pennsylvania may still cap non-economic (pain-and-suffering) damages, which can limit the recovery and therefore the fee.
Med-mal lawyers in Pennsylvania work on contingency (commonly 33–40%) with $0 up front and no fee unless you recover. Case costs (medical experts alone can run tens of thousands) are large and separate from the fee, and Pennsylvania’s damage caps, merit-affidavit rules, and deadlines apply, so confirm them locally.
