Invested in your success.
We’re willing to work for companies and individuals contingent on us obtaining a recovery from the defendant. That means your business pays nothing unless we — and you — succeed.
It’s this differentiator — the willingness to handle your case outside of traditional hourly rates — that sets us apart from other business litigation firms. While we offer traditional hourly rates, we recognized that an alternate fee arrangement may better suit the needs of you or your business.
- Contingency: You pay only if we win your case.
- Hourly: You pay only an hourly rate.
- Contingency-Hourly blend: You pay a lower hourly rate plus a reduced contingency fee.
