What Is a Contingency Fee Policy?

Our Clients Come First at Rouda Feder Tietjen & McGuinn

When facing a personal injury claim, one question people often worry about is whether or not they can afford the help of a lawyer in San Francisco. This is not something our clients at have to worry about. We operate on a contingency fee, meaning there are no fees for a client at our office unless we win his or her case.

There are several reasons why our contingency fee policy benefits you as our client:

  • You don't have to worry that receiving the legal help you need will force you to be stretched even thinner financially, in a time when you may already be dealing with unexpected medical bills and missed paychecks.
  • You can have confidence knowing that our team believes in your case. We are careful to choose cases that have merit.
  • You know we are working our hardest on your case because we are not paid unless we successfully resolve your claim.

Many law firms charge their clients between $250 and $1000 an hour. At RFTM, we do not charge an upfront hourly rate. Instead, we only take a percentage of your final recovery if your case is successful. In many cases, we will also advance any costs associated with litigation on your behalf — such as the costs of investigation, depositions, court fees, experts, and filing fees. In total, these costs can often surpass $100,000.

Speak with Our Highly Rated San Francisco Personal Injury Attorneys

Our contingency fee policy means that everyone has access to the courts to pursue justice, regardless of their financial circumstances. We are proud to stand up for our California, Bay Area, and statewide clients against large corporations and insurance companies to ensure fair compensation. Our track record of success shows our ability to do so with confidence.
