What Is A Contingency Fee Agreement And How Does It Work?

​

The Lyman Firm handles cases on a contingency fee basis. This means you don’t pay anything upfront or while the case is ongoing. We cover all costs—like filing fees, mediation, and experts—and are only paid if we recover money for you.

​

At the end of the case, our fee is a percentage of the total recovery (usually around 33%), plus reimbursement for any costs we advanced. If there’s no recovery, you owe nothing.

 

This system allows clients to pursue justice without paying out of pocket, while giving attorneys a strong incentive to take cases they believe in and work hard to win them.
