It allows attorneys to hire associate counsel and expert witnesses if necessary. Furthermore, the agreement outlines the circumstances under which attorneys may withdraw from representation while ensuring reimbursement for any advances made. This document is particularly useful for individuals navigating personal injury claims, offering clarity on the financial obligations involved. For attorneys, partners, and legal assistants, it serves as a foundational tool in establishing client relationships and managing financial expectations throughout the legal process.
