Description

The Contingency Fee Agreement with an Attorney or Law Firm outlines the arrangement between a client and their attorneys regarding the representation in a personal injury claim, such as wrongful termination. It specifies the payment structure for the attorneys’ fees based on the recovery amount: a percentage if settled without trial, a different percentage if resolved through trial, and another for appeal scenarios. The agreement also details the client's responsibility for costs and expenses incurred by the attorneys, including travel and expert fees. Key features include an attorneys' lien on any recovery, provisions for the employment of expert witnesses, and the rights concerning withdrawal or discharge of attorneys. The agreement highlights that favorable outcomes cannot be guaranteed by the attorneys, emphasizing the client's financial obligations in case of a settlement made without attorney consent. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, and paralegals in managing client cases efficiently and transparently. It supports legal assistants in understanding the fee structure and obligations while ensuring compliance with local laws, all relevant to the practice environment in Miami-Dade.
