Description

The Contingency Fee Agreement with an Attorney or Law Firm is a legal document designed to outline the terms under which a client retains attorneys to prosecute a claim, such as wrongful termination. This form specifies the percentage of fees based on the outcome of the claim, including costs associated with trials and settlements. Key features include provisions for attorney fees, costs and expenses, and the significance of the attorney's lien on recovered amounts. The agreement allows attorneys to employ experts and associate counsel at their discretion and entitles them to fees even if the client discharges them before settlement. It also grants attorneys the power of attorney for executing necessary documents related to the claim. For attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants, this form is indispensable in creating transparent legal relationships, ensuring clear expectations regarding payment, and protecting both parties' interests in contingency-based litigation.
