Most firms simply evaluate a potential client purely by their ability to pay. In a contingency setting, clients are screened by the merits of their action and the possibility of success for the client, which of course means success for the attorney. Contemporaneous pay (ie hourly, flat fee etc) clients need to be screened in the identical ways that the contingency fee lawyer screens their clients. By making sure that a client can actually obtain a successful result within their available budget, we give ourselves at least a chance of having a perfect client experience.
