Description

The Contingency Fee Agreement with an Attorney or Law Firm details the conditions under which an attorney represents a client in a wrongful termination claim. This form specifically outlines Minnesota's contingency rules, stipulating the percentage of the client's recovery that will be paid as attorney fees based on whether the case is settled out of court, resolved by trial, or involves an appeal. It highlights the client's responsibility for reasonable costs incurred by attorneys, which may include deposition fees and expert witness expenses. The agreement grants attorneys a lien on the recovery amount, ensuring they are compensated for services rendered. Key instructions for filling out the form include providing details of the claim, specifying fee percentages, and outlining the payment schedule for costs. The form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants, as it clarifies their roles, fee structures, and conditions for client agreements. It emphasizes that attorneys cannot guarantee a favorable outcome while allowing for flexibility in retaining associate counsel or expert witnesses. By understanding the nuances of this agreement, legal professionals can effectively manage client expectations and ensure compliance with Minnesota's legal standards.
