In today’s case (Holness Law Group Professional Law Corporation v. Mann) the client was injured in 4 vehicle collisions and retained a lawfirm to advance her claims. Before conclusion she discharged her initial lawyer and hired new counsel. The claims were subsequently settled and a contingency fee of 30% was charged. The client took no issue with the reasonableness of the global fee but a disagreement arose as to how much the first lawyer was entitled to.
