The Contingency Fee Agreement with an Attorney or Law Firm is a legal document designed for clients who engage attorneys to represent them in pursuing claims, such as wrongful termination. This agreement outlines the terms of employment, stipulating that clients will pay attorneys a percentage of any recovery—determined based on the outcome of the case, whether settled out of court, through trial, or after an appeal. Additionally, it addresses costs and expenses incurred by the attorneys, which the client agrees to reimburse on a specified basis.

Notably, clients are warned that attorneys cannot guarantee a favorable outcome. This form is highly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants in understanding the parameters of fee arrangements and managing cases efficiently. The straightforward instructions guide users in filling out the form accurately, while its structured layout enhances readability, making it accessible for individuals with varying levels of legal knowledge.
