I have been approached by a client to sue a lawyer who misused funds of the client. I have also filed a complaint with the Pennsylvania Lawyers Fund for Client Security. Can I have a contingent fee to do this?
The answer is a clear no. Any time a lawyer represents a client before the Client Security Fund, the lawyer cannot take a fee without the Client Security Fund board’s approval.
