Raphaelson Law Firm Billing & Fees

At Raphaelson Law, a central component of adding value within each client relationship is creating a fee arrangement that is tailored to suit each client’s needs. We offer alternative fee structures in addition to traditional hourly billing.

Traditional Hourly Billing

Under a traditional hourly billing structure, Raphaelson Law receives an hourly rate for our attorney’s work on a client’s case. As with any other fee arrangement, we focus on diligence and efficiency to minimize the cost to the client.

Traditional Contingent Fee

A traditional contingent fee is a fee structure in which Raphaelson Law receives an agreed upon percentage of the recovery in a lawsuit brought on a client’s behalf. In business cases, the client typically pays the expenses associated with the litigation; however, we do share litigation costs with clients in some circumstances and are willing to discuss different options with clients. In personal injury cases, Raphaelson Law pays the expenses subject to reimbursement from any settlement or judgment. A traditional contingent fee structure often appeals to clients who have limited resources to finance their litigation and wish to bring claims for monetary damages.

Hybrid Hourly Rate/Contingent Fee

In a modified or hybrid hourly rate/contingent fee arrangement, Raphaelson Law charges the client by the hour at an agreed upon rate to a capped amount, plus a percentage of the recovery in the lawsuit. Using a hybrid hourly rate/contingent fee approach can allow clients to reduce costs, while still sharing the risks associated with litigation with Raphaelson Law. As with traditional contingent fee arrangements, the hybrid hourly rate/contingent fee arrangement typically appeals to clients who are seeking primarily monetary damages.
