What “Contingency Fee” Means
A contingency fee is a fee that exists only if the case succeeds: the lawyer is paid a percentage of the recovery rather than hourly, and if there’s no recovery, there’s no fee. It’s the arrangement that makes elite legal representation available to people who could never fund it hourly.
