In most cases, lawyers take a percentage of between 35 and 40 percent from the total settlement. This amount, however, is subject of negotiation as you can have it reduced or paid out in smaller quantities. In most of the cases, personal injury lawyers usually receive around 33% or a third of the total settlement or award. For example, if you are given a settlement of around $33,000, you will receive $23,000 as your lawyer gets the remaining $10,000. It simply works like that in most of the cases across the world and especially in Canada.
