We offer contingency representation to our clients during difficult financial times.

In addition to hourly representation, we offer reasonable contingency agreements for attorney fees for legal services where there is no attorney fee unless you win or collect.  Contingent Fees are not permitted by law in all types of cases, but such arrangements are standard in Social Security cases and used often in Long Term Disability ERISA cases.  Court costs and other additional expenses of legal action usually must be paid by the client.
