What does “Contingency” mean?
As contingency lawyers, in most cases, there is no up-front cost to our clients. We are in it with our clients, from initial meeting, right through to trial (when required). For us it’s not about billable hours; it’s about representing our clients and helping them navigate the legal system in order to achieve rightful financial compensation for their misfortune.

The Law Society of Ontario ("LSO") has mandated the use of a Standard Form Contingency Fee Agreement ("SFCFA") and has new rules governing contingency fee agreements. The fee that you will pay us for legal services is a percentage of the money you get as a settlement or as an award at trial. The percentage also applies to any amount paid by the other side for costs. Costs is money to help you pay for legal fees but in most cases, costs pay only for a part of a person's legal expenses. We are required to disclose and post on our firm website the maximum contingency fee percentage we charge under the SFCFA. The maximum fee we charge is 30% of your settlement or trial award including costs, plus HST.
