We Take Most Cases On A Contingency Fee Agreement
Explanation of Attorney Fees
Most people (individuals & small business owners), even when they have suffered an injustice, do not pursue their legal rights because they fear the attorney fees will cost too much. However, for most serious bad faith, personal injury, or wrongful death cases, our Los Angeles bad faith law firm will work often with a contingency fee agreement.
When our Los Angeles attorneys handle an insurance bad faith, personal injury or wrongful death case in California on a contingency fee agreement, there is generally no cost to you. Zero cost – unless our lawyers are able to recover a settlement or judgment on your behalf. You do not pay any fees or costs until the case is resolved by trial, arbitration, settlement, or other resolution.
With A Contingency Fee Agreement You Do Not Have To Front The Costs Of Litigation
Litigation costs, excluding attorney fees, can run in the tens of thousands of dollars even in small or medium size cases. The cost can be hundreds of thousands of dollars in larger more complex cases. Our Los Angeles law firm takes care of all of that for you, such as:
- Filing fees with the court
- Court reporter fees for depositions
- Copying costs
- Costs of serving subpoenas
- And the cost of hiring experts on your behalf
Only after there is a recovery in the action are the attorney fees reimbursed for litigation costs.
Contingency Fees Are Based On A Percentage Of Any Final Settlement Or Judgment
The percentage arrangement is agreed upon, between you and our Los Angeles, California law firm, before we take your case. Only after there is a recovery in the action does this law firm collect its attorney fees out of any settlement or judgment.
Clients Typically prefer A Contingency Fee Arrangement
Whether you are an individual or a business owner, a contingency fee agreement is preferred over upfront attorney fees because you do not have any up front, out-of-pocket expenses. Also, contingency fee arrangements tend to ensure that lawyers only pursue meritorious cases. When the lawyer is taking the risk by fronting the costs and investing his or her efforts and time, that lawyer is unlikely to take a case he or she does not believe in. This benefits everyone, including you the client, and society as a whole.
Our California attorneys work hard for our clients, and believe in the cases that we take. Whether your case is insurance bad faith, an insurance dispute, personal injury, wrongful death, or products liability case, we can help. Most California litigation cases we take are on a contingency fee agreement.
Even if you have no or very limited resources, you don’t have to worry about attorney fees. You can pursue your legal rights when an attorney takes your case on a contingency fee arrangement.
