Description
The Contingency Fee Agreement with an Attorney or Law Firm is a formal document designed for clients in Contra Costa seeking legal representation, particularly for wrongful termination claims. This agreement specifies the attorney's fees, which are based on a percentage of the net recovery from the claim, whether settled out of court or resolved through trial. Clients are responsible for reasonable costs incurred by the attorneys, which may include expert witness fees and other necessary disbursements. The agreement ensures that attorneys have a lien on any settlement or judgment recovered. Attorneys can employ expert witnesses and associate counsel at their discretion, with costs billed to the client. Notably, if clients settle without attorney consent, they still owe fees per the agreement's terms. Clients should be informed that no guarantees of a favorable outcome are made by the attorneys. This form is highly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants looking to establish clear terms of engagement with their clients, ensuring transparency and mutual understanding of fee structures and obligations.
