At LaGarde Law Firm, we understand that the cost of business litigation can be overwhelming. That’s why we offer a contingent fee arrangement—providing businesses with high-quality legal representation without the burden of upfront costs.

A New Approach to Legal Fees

Traditional law firms bill by the hour and require an upfront retainer. At LaGarde Law Firm, we do things  differently. In select cases, we work on a contingency. This means we only get paid a percentage of what we recover for your business. In some instances, we even cover the costs of litigation upfront,  which will be reimbursed from any recovery. We also offer flexible arrangements, such as reduced hourly rates with a smaller contingent fee upon successful recovery.

Tailored Solutions for Unique Cases

No two cases are the same. That’s why we tailor our fee model to suit your business’s  needs. Whether it’s breach of contract, theft of trade secrets, unfair competition, fraud, or shareholder disputes, we handle a wide range of business litigation on a contingency basis.

Why Choose Contingency Fees?

Contingent fees are common in personal injury law but not typically used for business disputes. We believe that businesses should have access to justice without being deterred by high costs. By sharing the risks and costs, we make litigation feasible for businesses with strong cases that would otherwise be too expensive to pursue.

  • Save on Upfront Costs: Traditional litigation fees can run into hundreds of  thousands of dollars. Our contingency fee model eliminates these prohibitive  upfront costs.

  • Incentive for Success: Since we only get paid when we win, we are highly  motivated to achieve the best possible results for you—efficiently and effectively.

  • Confidence in Your Case: Our willingness to take cases on a contingency fee basis reflects our confidence in the strength of your case.
