The average contingency rate falls between 20-40%, with most lawyers charging around 33% to 35% of the total amount recovered in a case. The exact percentage can vary depending on the complexity of the case, the lawyer's experience, and the stage at which the case is resolved.

Because the ERC is considered an income-related grant under IAS 20, an entity may elect to present the income in one of two ways: (1) gross as a grant or other income item, or (2) net as a deduction from the expense category in which the reporting entity reports employment taxes (typically employee compensation).
Companies with 500 or fewer employees can count everyone on the payroll (regardless of whether or not they worked during the pandemic) for up to 10,000 dollars in wages for all of 2020 and up to 10,000 dollars in wages per quarter for the first three quarters of 2021. The ERC covers 70 percent of eligible wages.
To qualify for ERC, you need to have been subject to a qualifying government order related to COVID-19 that caused a full or partial suspension of your trade or business operations. The government order may be at the local, state or federal level.
Credit amount The total ERC benefit per employee can be up to $26,000 ($5,000 in 2020 and $7,000 per quarter in 2021).
On Form 1120S, businesses can report the ERC by including it as a credit on Line 13f (“Credits”) of Schedule K, Form 1120S. Ensure accurate documentation of qualified wages and related expenses to support the credit claim.
