What is the legal fee charged for representation in a Kaiser case?
The law firm of Walkup, Melodia, Kelly & Schoenberger represents clients on a contingent fee basis. A fee is charged only if the case is successful and money is recovered. The maximum contingent fees applicable in medical negligence cases are set forth in Business & Professions Code ยง6146. If it is determined that you have a meritorious claim, the team of Kaiser specialists at the Walkup firm will discuss an appropriate contingent fee agreement that provides for fees as set forth in the statute. If your case has merit, you will not pay hourly fees, but the fee will be deducted from any amount recovered.
