Neese Law Firm Litigation Cost Policy
Submitted by anonymous on Fri, 2009-07-17 17:46
We work on a contingent fee basis, which means that you do not owe us anything until we recover money for you.
Throughout your case, we will advance all of the costs involved in pursuing your lawsuit, including things such as court filing fees, expert witness fees, ordering medical records, depositions, travel, etc. At the end of your case, these costs are paid back out of the recovery. If there is no recovery, you owe us nothing.
Because litigation costs reduce the amount of the recovery, we watch our costs very carefully and ensure that they are as reasonable as possible. Our Representation Agreement, which you will sign in order to hire us, contains additional specifics about the calculation and repayment of litigation costs.
Unlike some law firms, we do not charge for:
- In-office copies
- Phone calls
- Faxes
- Postage
- Mileage within the Houston area
- Parking at the courthouse
- Meals
- Interest on the money we advance
At the end of each case, we provide our clients with an itemization of all of the litigation costs along with the back-up invoices. When it comes to your money, there are no dumb questions. Please be sure to ask us if you have any questions about our Litigation Cost Policy or any of the specifics in the Representation Agreement.
