At Schehr Law, PLLC, we work strictly on a contingency fee. A contingency fee is a model in which nothing is paid to the attorney upfront. Instead, the attorney will base his fee on a percentage of recovery. If we do not get you a recovery, we do not get paid.
The standard fee in North Carolina for a contingency fee is 33%. However, this fee is often negotiable or can be reduced depending on the settlement size. We have implemented a Fee is Free Guarantee policy and believe that everyone should have equal access to high-quality legal representation.
