The contingent fee is the most common form of payment arrangement for plaintiffs (victims) seeking representation in consumer fraud litigation. \u00a0Under a contingency fee arrangement, if you do not prevail in your case,\u00a0ATL is entitled to nothing. \u00a0The contingent fee gives injured people, whatever their financial means, an \u201ceven break\u201d in the courtroom against\u00a0big companies and wealthy individuals. \u00a0Were it not for the contingent fee, people of lesser means might not be able to have their day in court.<\/p>\n
The \u201ccontingent\u201d aspect of the fee means that if there is no recovery, there is no attorneys\u2019 fee owed. \u00a0There are a number of advantages to this type of fee arrangement, the most obvious of which, is the absence of a risk of owing ATL a fee when there has been no recovery by you. \u00a0Another important advantage of this type of fee arrangement is the security the client should feel knowing that\u00a0ATL has the same incentive as that of the client.\u00a0 Namely,\u00a0ATL succeeds when YOU succeed and not otherwise.\u00a0 The fact that\u00a0ATL is willing to handle a client\u2019s case on a contingent fee basis is a reflection of\u00a0\u00a0ATL\u2019s confidence in\u00a0its ability to obtain a recovery in the case.<\/p>\n
The percentage of the award charged on a contingency fee basis depends upon the type of case.\u00a0\u00a0ATL advises its clients up front of all applicable fees and openly address any questions our clients may have. \u00a0Although one case may demand a higher percentage fee than another, all contingency fees are paid only when there is a monetary recovery on behalf of the client.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
