Understanding Our Fee Policy
One of the biggest concerns people have when hiring a lawyer is the cost. At Rob Levine Law, we believe transparency is key. Many law firms operate under different payment structures, which can confuse clients. That’s why we want you to fully understand how our fees work, so you can make an informed decision about your case.
Hourly Fee System
Some law offices charge by the hour instead of working on contingency. In these cases, you may be required to pay a retainer upfront, often ranging from $1,000 to $10,000. This retainer is held in an escrow account, and your lawyer will bill against it at hourly rates typically between $200 and $600 per hour. As work is completed, you receive statements showing deductions from your retainer toward the attorney’s fees. If the retainer runs out, you may be asked to replenish it to continue work on your case.
Contingency Fee Basis: No Upfront Costs Until You Recover
At Rob Levine Law, we proudly operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront—no retainer, no hourly fees. Our attorneys only get paid if we win your case and recover compensation for you. Our standard contingency fee is 33.33% (one-third) of the total recovery. There are no legal limits or caps on this fee.
In addition to the contingency fee, clients are responsible for any out-of-pocket costs incurred during their case, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, and other necessary expenses.
Special Discount for First Responders
We deeply appreciate the service of first responders, including police officers, firefighters, rescue personnel, and military members. As a thank you, we offer a discounted contingency fee of 25% for first responders, lowering the fee from the standard one-third.
