Description

The Contingency Fee Agreement is designed for clients hiring attorneys to pursue claims, such as wrongful termination. It specifies that clients agree to pay attorneys a percentage of the net recovery based on the outcome of the case, whether resolved out of court, at trial, or after an appeal. The agreement also outlines payment responsibilities for costs and expenses incurred by the attorneys while advancing the client's case. Attorneys maintain a lien on any settlement or judgment to ensure payment for their services. It includes provisions for hiring expert witnesses and associate counsel at the attorneys' discretion. Clients are responsible for fees even if they settle claims without attorney consent. The agreement emphasizes that attorneys do not guarantee successful outcomes. Target users, such as attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants, can utilize this form to establish clear payment terms and responsibilities while protecting their interests and maintaining compliance with applicable laws.
