Unfortunately, 99% of competent lawyers will not take such cases on a contingency basis. You will likely need to be prepared to spend money out of pocket pursuing such a case. These are primarily based on finaincial issues - not necessarily legal ones, as it is rare for there to be insurance coverage or a collectable defendant in such cases. If you are looking to hire a lawyer - make it clear you are willing to pay a retainer up front for the work so you don't get rejected out of hand.
