Description

The Contingency Fee Agreement with an Attorney or Law Firm is a legal form tailored for clients seeking representation in claims, such as wrongful termination. This agreement allows clients to hire attorneys based on a contingency fee structure, specifying the percentage of net recovery that will serve as attorney fees depending on whether the claim is settled out of court or resolved through trial. Key features include provisions for costs and expenses related to the case, with attorneys entitled to advance necessary expenditures, which the client must refund. The agreement also outlines the attorneys' lien on any recovered amounts, ensuring their right to payment from settlement funds. Additionally, clients grant attorneys the power of attorney to execute necessary documents on their behalf. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, and associates who are managing client cases, as well as paralegals and legal assistants, who may assist in the drafting and administration of such agreements. It serves as a clear framework for financial obligations and the attorney-client relationship, emphasizing transparency and mutual understanding.
