FREE INITIAL PHONE INTAKE AND FREE ONLINE CASE REVIEW-CONTINGENCY FEE LEGAL SERVICES IN LOS ANGELES
Our office can take on legal matters on a contingency fee basis (i.e., No Recovery No Fee) related to workplace disputes or on an hourly-fee basis. We understand that many individuals cannot afford to pay upfront hourly rates or retainers, therefore, if we take your case, we can take your case on a contingency fee basis. Taking a case on a contingency fee basis means that a client does not pay upfront hourly fees or retainers, but if there is a recovery, our office will take a portion of the recovery. But if there is no recovery there will be no attorney fee charged. Due to the risk undertaken by our office in contingency fee cases (i.e., risk that if the caselaw is lost, we lose valuable time and money), we require all potential clients to go through the intake process.
To begin the intake process, submit the free case evaluation form, or call our office for a telephone intake session at (818) 237-5267.
HOW CAN A LOCAL LABOR ATTORNEY HELP ME?
A labor lawyer in Los Angeles can help you with a workplace dispute because he or she is familiar with employment laws and understands the rights of the employee and the employer.
