Description

The Contingency Fee Agreement with an Attorney or Law Firm is a legal document designed for clients engaged in a wrongful termination claim. It outlines the employment of attorneys who will represent the client, detailing the structure of attorney fees based on the outcome of the case—whether settled out of court, through trial, or after an appeal. The agreement also specifies how costs and expenses are to be handled, including provisions for advanced costs, expert witnesses, and associate counsel involvement. Notably, it establishes the attorney's lien on any recovery amount, securing their fee from any settlement or judgment. The document provides clear instructions on how attorneys can withdraw from representation and the implications of client-initiated settlements. This agreement is particularly valuable for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants, streamlining the client-attorney relationship and clarifying financial expectations. Users should carefully fill out the form, ensuring the accurate completion of details specific to their case while also maintaining communication with all parties involved.
