We found this lawyer rather confusing, at our first meeting, our case became a much larger concern-he added defendants, making it all much more money & time than we could afford.We were not pleased with being asked to take all the financial risks, asked to pay an “estimated fees” amount of 1000s of $$ before case work, & reimbursed only IF favorable courts.Costs maybe endless, high risk-time & money. Felt pressure to sign, i.e.:comments of how busy he'd be soon.We like taking our time re: big decisions-Qs thoroughly & clearly answered.Needed to understand his entire plan before we'd consider signing. On the positive he does take time answering Qs, explanations intimidating -felt we had to know more law to understand, kept reminding him we're laypersons. Lawyers have a $$ amount in mind when they take a case, but he wouldn’t give us a potential award number. We simply had to pass. If the contract had been truly contingent, we believe we would have probably have had him represent us.
