Description

The Contingency Fee Agreement with an Attorney or Law Firm is a crucial legal document utilized in cases of wrongful termination. This agreement delineates the understanding between the client and the attorneys regarding the representation in pursuing claims. Key features include the stipulation of attorney fees based on a percentage of the net recovery, whether settled out of court or via a trial. The document also addresses the responsibility for costs and expenses incurred during the representation, as well as the attorneys' lien on any settlements or judgments. Additionally, it allows attorneys to employ experts or associate counsel as needed, with costs being payable by the client. This form enables attorneys to manage claims effectively while ensuring clients understand their obligations, such as paying fees even if they settle independently. The agreement highlights that attorneys do not guarantee favorable outcomes and empowers them to execute necessary legal documents on behalf of the client. The structured nature of this form makes it valuable for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants in facilitating a clear understanding of the client-attorney relationship and financial arrangements.
