My name is Ron Brown, I’m a senior partner at Brown and Crouppen. I want to talk to you about how legal fees work at the law firm.

First, I understand that how you pay a lawyer is of great concern to people who need legal services. I also understand that people who need the type of help that we offer have had something terrible happen to them. I know that people hurt in accidents are often in no position to pay a lawyer any “up front” fee to begin their case. For this reason Brown and Crouppen, to make it as easy as possible to hire a lawyer, has adopted the contingent fee system as our general method of payment.

The contingent fee system is the “key” to the courtroom for thousands of Americans. A contingent fee simply says that we are paid a percentage of what we are able to make the other side pay you. It allows people, who have been injured in an accident, to hire a lawyer without having to pay any money in advance.

That’s right, a contingent fee means no retainer or costs have to be paid in advance before a qualified attorney can begin to work on your case. In a contingent fee system you don’t have to pay a lawyer hundreds of dollars an hour, whether they are successful or not. With a Brown and Crouppen contingent fee you only pay if you win, because, why pay for failure?

Well, that’s the basics of how fees work at Brown and Crouppen. What’s important is that you don’t have to stay away from a lawyer because you don’t have any money to pay in advance. If you have any further questions just click here and someone will contact you promptly.
