What is contingency fee litigation?
Contingency fee litigation refers to situations where attorneys only get paid if they win the case at trial or if the action settles. Attorneys who practice on a contingent fee arrangement typically do not receive any form of monetary payment from a client at the outset of a litigation. Rather, the attorneys’ fees are paid only once there is a successful resolution from any settlement or judgment that is achieved. There are no out-of-pocket expenses for the plaintiffs as Pennsylvania law allows Barroway Topaz Kessler Meltzer Check, LLP to advance all such costs on behalf of its clients. Barroway Topaz Kessler Meltzer Check, LLP handles virtually all of its cases on a contingency fee basis.
