Description

The Contingency Agreement with Attorney in Georgia outlines the relationship between a client and their attorney, detailing the attorney's employment to prosecute a claim, such as wrongful termination. Key features include provisions for attorney fees based on the percentage of net recovery, covering costs and expenses incurred during representation, and establishing a lien in favor of the attorneys on any settlement or judgment. This agreement gives attorneys the discretion to employ experts and associate counsel at their expense and allows for contracts to be modified only in writing. The client is also informed of their financial obligations should they settle without the attorney's consent and that successful outcomes are not guaranteed. This form is essential for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants, as it provides a clear framework for fee structures and responsibilities, enabling them to manage cases effectively while safeguarding their interests.
