Contingency Attorneys

A contingency fee is a type of attorney-fee arrangement where attorney fees are only paid if you win or settle your matter, in which case a percentage of the award (usually between 33.33%-50%) is paid to the attorney.  A flat fee is a type of attorney fee where a fixed (certain) amount is charged for the legal services at issue.  Sometimes a contingency fee will be mixed with a flat fee.  An hourly fee is charged by the hour, and rates commonly range between $150/hour to $500 or more per hour.  Hourly legal fees have a total value that is uncertain.  For example, if an attorney charges $300/hour, the total amount of legal fees will depend on the number of hours of work that are ultimately done (e.g. $3,000 for 10 hours of work, $4,500 for 15 hours, etc.).

List of Contingency Attorneys In Wisconsin

Below are some WI employee-rights attorneys who represent many workers on contingency for discrimination matters.  Whether they would agree to do so for you is up to them and you, and depends on the circumstances.  I believe most of these attorneys will represent workers from anywhere in Wisconsin.  (While you may prefer to hire an attorney located in your city, please know that is usually not necessary in my observation).
