No Upfront Costs. No Fees Unless We Win.
After an accident, the last thing you should worry about is how to afford legal help. At Hillstone Law, we believe justice should be accessible to everyone, no matter their financial situation. That’s why we operate on a contingency fee basis — you only pay us if we win your case.
Here’s what you get:
- Free access to top medical providers with no upfront payment.
- 24/7 communication and regular case updates.
- A legal team that treats you like family, not just a file.
Justice First, Fees Later
Personal injury cases are about accountability, healing, and rebuilding your life — not legal fees. At Hillstone Law, we take on the financial risk so you can focus on recovery. From the moment you contact us to the moment your case resolves, our mission is simple: protect your rights and secure your future.
We represent clients with serious injuries including:
- Broken bones
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord injuries
- Severe burns

We treat your case with the compassion and urgency it deserves — because we understand what’s at stake.
How Do Contingency Fees Work?
Our contingency model means:
- Free consultation
- No hourly billing
- No upfront costs
- Fees only come from your settlement or verdict
If we don’t win your case, you owe us nothing.
In California, personal injury attorneys typically charge between 35% and 45% of the final compensation amount, depending on the complexity of the case. For example, if your case settles for $100,000 and your agreement is for 35%, our fee would be $35,000. If we don’t recover anything, you don’t pay anything.
What We Handle — With Zero Upfront Fees
We’ve helped thousands of injury victims across California get justice and financial recovery. Cases we handle include:
- Car accidents
- Uber & Lyft accidents
- Truck accidents
- Slip and fall injuries
- Dog bites
- Brain, head, or neck injuries
Each of these cases requires a skilled legal strategy and detailed investigation to hold the at-fault party accountable.
Important Legal Deadlines in California
In most California personal injury cases, you have two years from the date of injury to file a claim. Some claims involving government entities must be filed within six months. These cases may involve:
- Public sidewalks or parks
- City buses and trains
- Government buildings or facilities
Don’t wait — delays can cost you your rights.
