The lemon law shifts the attorneys fees to the car maker.
You
should be pleased to know that under California’s lemon
law, all of the attorney’s fees and court costs that are
incurred in your case are the responsibility of the
automobile manufacturer, not you.
The number of hours that I spend working with an
automobile manufacturer and/or in court on a lemon law
case would make it economically prohibitive for most
consumers to retain legal counsel to handle their lemon
law case.
We
are fortunate to be car owners in California, as our lemon
law is written so that the automobile manufacturers have
to pay the consumer’s attorneys fees and court costs in
a successful lemon law case.
Because of this, the hiring agreement between
yourself and my office is known as a contingency agreement,
which means that my getting paid for my fees is contingent
(or dependant) upon a successful settlement of your case.
And when that occurs, the automobile manufacturer
is legally responsible to pay my fees, not you!
If I am unable to successfully settle your case, or
win your case in court, then I do not receive payment for
my work.
Many
consumers are under the impression that they have to put
money up-front (a “retainer fee”) to start a case.
That is not true with my office. If I believe in the
merits of your case and accept it, there is no up-front
retainer fee due, no money required during your case, and
none due at the conclusion of your case.
In short, you pay nothing for our firm’s
representation.
There
are some lemon law case’s that clearly will be very
difficult to win or settle successfully, but which I
believe have a good chance of success given my track
record of settling 12,000 lemon law cases.
These are known as high risk portfolio
cases. Even on these cases, I still do not ask for
an up-front retainer fee, nor for any monies during the
case. However,
due to my financial outlay in time and costs, together
with the attendant risk of the case, I will ask for a
relatively small “contingency fee” that is
deducted from your settlement upon the successful
settlement of your case. This contingency fee is
nominal, typically 5-10% of your settlement.
If I am not able to settle your case, you
still pay nothing. Even on a high-risk category case, with
my office you take no risk at all.
I
invite you to call, as you have everything to gain,
nothing to lose, and nothing to risk. 1-800-225-3666
