What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Maine
My girlfriend was terminated from her job earlier this summer for, what we feel, was retaliation after making a formal complaint about sexual harrasment. After meeting with a lawyer on the matter, the attorney has offered to take the case on a continget fee basis.
Yesterday we recieved a copy of a contract in the mail for her to sign which will formalize the agreement. After reviewing the contract my girlfriend and I have several questions which we plan to pose to the attorney before she signs. However, I was hoping some folks here may be able to critique the contract for us and identify areas that should be of specific concern.
If anyone is willing to spend a few minutes reviewing the contract we would greatly appreciate it. A .pdf of the agreement has been uploaded (with all names removed) to the following link: {Deleted}
Also, would it be best to pose the questions in writing to develop a written/documented record, or should they be asked via telephone call? I see advantages to doing both.
Thanks in advance!
