Description

The Contingency Fee Agreement with an Attorney or Law Firm outlines the financial arrangements between a client and their attorney in cases of wrongful termination. This agreement specifies the attorney's fees based on the outcome of the claim, detailing percentages for settlements out of court, trials, and appeals. It also includes provisions for covering reasonable costs and disbursements incurred by the attorney. Key features of this agreement highlight the attorney's lien on recovery amounts, the discretion to employ expert witnesses, and the terms for discharging or substituting attorneys. The agreement maintains that attorneys cannot guarantee a favorable outcome, making it clear that all promises are opinions rather than warranties. The form is useful for attorneys, partners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants in managing client engagements effectively. They can ensure proper fee structures, clarify financial responsibilities, and understand the implications of client settlements without attorney consent. This comprehensive understanding allows legal teams to provide informed counsel to clients while navigating complex legal scenarios.
