Contingency and Hourly
At Monkhouse Law we work on both contingency, and hourly.
With contingency, you pay a percentage of how much we get for you in a settlement or judgment. With hourly you agree to pay us for each hour we work for you, no matter the outcome, which is billed usually quarterly.
The decision to offer hourly and/or contingency options is determined by the lawyer or paralegal taking on your case at Monkhouse Law.
Regarding contingency fee matters if we choose to take a matter on contingency, generally, the maximum fee is 30% of the improvement we managed to get for you plus the case review fee, disbursements and taxes. If there are counterclaims or appeals the fee can increase to 40% of the improvement. The improvement refers to the amount by which your initial termination offer is increased.
