In a contingent fee arrangement, the lawyer agrees to accept a fixed percentage (often one-third to 40 percent) of the recovery, which is the amount finally paid to the client. If you win the case, the lawyer's fee comes out of the money awarded to you.
In contrast to a fixed hourly fee, in a contingent fee arrangement lawyers receive a percentage of the monetary amount his/her client receives when they win or settle their case. That is, in a contingency fee agreement, the lawyer only receives compensation if the lawyer has successfully represented the client.
While the percentage of the fee varies by lawyer, typically contingency fees are 33 2153 percent of the case if a lawsuit is not filed and 40% if a lawsuit is filed.

When a lawyer works for a contingency fee, it means the lawyer gets paid only if their client recovers damages. There is no upfront charge for the lawyer's services. In fact, you never make an out-of-pocket payment. The contingency fee simply comes out of the compensation the attorney recovers on your behalf.
