What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
I have a basic question about attorney fee. I was reading a case and it mentioned the following: Client will pay Attorneys fees of 35% of any settlement or recovery that Attorney obtains for Client up to 100 days before the date set for trial and 40% of any settlement or recovery that that Attorney obtains for client after that date.Those fees shall be of any settlement or recovery prior to the deduction of any expense or cost ,or the "gross" recovery.
Can someone explain me with an example in dollar amount what the above means? Does this mean the attorney is entitled to get 75% in fees?
Thanks,
Eddie
