Description

The Contingency Contract in Negotiation in Maryland is designed for clients seeking legal representation on a contingency fee basis. This document outlines the professional relationship between the client and attorney, detailing the terms of employment, attorney fees, and costs associated with pursuing a claim. Key features include the percentage of recovery the attorney will receive depending on whether the case is settled out of court, at trial, or following an appeal. Clients are also responsible for reimbursing the attorney for any advanced costs incurred during the case. The agreement allows attorneys to employ experts and associate counsel as needed and grants them a lien on any recovery to ensure payment of fees and expenses. The document emphasizes the lack of guarantees regarding the outcome of the case, making it clear that the attorneys do not promise success. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, and legal assistants who wish to ensure clarity in fee structures and client expectations.
