A contingency fee agreement is a contract between a client and attorney where fee payment to the attorney depends on the outcome of the case. This usually means that the attorney only gets paid if the attorney settles or wins the case. Contingency fees can range from 25% to 40% of the case total.

No Upfront Fees:
Clients do not typically have to pay any fees upfront to start their personal injury case.
Percentage of Recovery:

No Payment if You Lose:
In most cases, the injured person does not owe any attorney fees if there is no recovery.
Predictable Costs:
Costs are outlined in most attorney-client agreements. Clients should know upfront what costs they may potentially be responsible for.
Equal Access to Justice:
Contingency fee agreements allow injured individuals to access legal help and seek justice for their injuries.
Contingency fees are calculated based upon the gross amount recovered. Case costs paid by the firm are also reimbursed to the firm from the amount recovered. Our agreement regarding fees and expenses applicable to your specific case will be provided in writing and in accordance with California law.
