Basis

Once
you decide to hire a Tampa personal injury attorney
at Clark and Martino, P.A., we take almost all cases
on a “contingency fee basis.”
Basically,
a contingency fee basis means you pay no lawyer’s
fees unless you win a settlement your case. If you do
win your case, the “contingency fee” would
be a percentage of the money you receive from the case.
The percentage varies somewhat according to a few different
factors, such as how much money you win in your case.
In most situations, the contingency fee is roughly one-third
of the settlement.
In
addition to the contingency fee, each client also agrees
to pay for costs related to his or her case. These costs
may include:
-
Filing fees
-
Long distance telephone charges
-
Travel expenditures
-
Courier fees
-
Copying, printing, and postage expenses
-
Private investigator and expert witness fees
To
help you fully understand the contingency fees and other
fees in your case when you become our client, you will
be given a Contingency Fee Agreement. This agreement
clearly outlines what contingency fees you can expect
in your case. The Contingency Fee Agreement also outlines
your rights as a client, for example, your right to
know how much money will be spent in preparing your
case and your right to make the final decision regarding
the settlement of your case.
