I recently called an attorney to see if I had a case against my current employer. The assistant I spoke with asked some questions and then asked if we could come in on Monday. He then advised the hour consult would be $200.
I have two questions:
1) I only want to know if I have a case. If I dont, I do not want to pay $200 to find out.
2) If I do have a case, do attorneys (specifically in Florida) work off of a contingency basis? I dont mind paying a consult fee but if they take the case with confidence they can win it, will they collect the remainder of their fee as a percentage of the settlement?
I will pitch my problem here if there is someone who can truly tell me if this is a legit case.
Thanks all!
