Fees are charged on either a contingency, flat fee, or an hourly basis, or for qualified clients a blend can be used. Most of our work is done on a contingency basis which means that we only get paid a fee if we collect money for you. Even then, we only take our fees out of what we collect.
What are "costs" and how do they differ from "fees?"
