I'm sorry to interrupt, but what if the arrangement with the client is a percentage of the yield as a result of the case?
I mean, a store quite often will sell services or goods for different amounts, and they have to assess a whole bunch of stuff into it. If I were a lawyer, if I'm going to assess what my value is in this particular case, my hourly rate might be more if I determine that my outcome of a success is less likely, because there's a greater risk to me to do that.
Are you suggesting that they just take their hourly rate times the number of hours they had, and then apply that?
