How We Help

As legal counselors, it is our job to help clients understand their rights for potential compensation in injury, whistleblowing, workers’ comp, and similar matters, as well as to explain how we can help in traffic ticket and criminal defense matters.  In all cases, the first step is to conduct a free initial consultation.  During this consultation, we ask questions regarding the facts and circumstances of a case so that we can provide this education and assistance.

How Much Do Hillsville Lawyers Charge?

In cases involving injury, social security disability, and workers’ compensation, we accept cases on a contingency fee basis.  This means that you will not pay a fee for our services unless compensation is obtained.

Further, our fee is usually paid directly from a jury verdict, settlement, or award; thus, most injury victims will never come out of pocket for our representation.  We additionally advance litigation costs, so that clients do not need to come “out of pocket” for such costs while their case is ongoing (normally, these costs are paid back from a jury award or settlement).

We also offer affordable flat-fee pricing for traffic citations and criminal matters, including:

• Traffic Tickets
• DUI
• Reckless Driving
• Assault
• Driving with a Suspended License
• Other Criminal Matters

Therefore, our clients never have to worry about incurring insurmountable legal bills or surprise charges.  Before commencing representation, we will provide you with an agreement that clearly explains our billing structure and fees, and we will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

When Should I Call The Law Offices of Mark T. Hurt About My Case?

In many cases, there is a deadline (known as the statute of limitations) during which a claim must be filed.  With respect to injury cases, it is critical to file a lawsuit before the applicable statute of limitations expires; otherwise, the ability to recover compensation may be permanently lost.

The statute of limitations deadline varies depending on the type of case.  For example, to seek compensation for personal injuries, a victim usually has only two years from the date of an accident to file.[1]  In other cases, the statute of limitations may be only a few months or a year from the date of an injury.  In other matters – such as social security disability and workers’ compensation – it is important to retain an attorney as soon as possible, so that benefits can be obtained.

While it is not possible to list all of the factors here that affect the statute of limitations, once we learn about your matter we can advise of the appropriate statute of limitations for your case.
