The Contingent Fee Agreement with an Attorney or Law Firm is a legal document used in Ohio to establish the terms under which an attorney will represent a client in a claim, such as wrongful termination. This agreement outlines key features including the percentage of recovery that will be paid as attorney fees, which varies based on whether the case is settled out of court or requires a trial. The form includes provisions for costs and expenses incurred during representation, which the client is responsible for reimbursing, and specifies the attorney's lien on any recovered sums. It also allows attorneys to hire expert witnesses and associate counsel as necessary. This document is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants as it serves to clearly delineate responsibilities and expectations, ensuring transparency in financial arrangements.
