A: The cost of commercial litigation can vary greatly and depends on the complexity of the dispute, the willingness of the parties to negotiate, and the type of fee agreement you establish with your attorney.
Commercial litigation attorneys usually bill clients in one of two ways: hourly, or on a contingency basis. In an hourly arrangement, you can expect to pay at least $250/hour, and possibly up to $500 per hour; your case may require 20 hours or 200 hours. For example, if your lawyer charges $250/hour and your case goes through to trial, it may cost you $60k-$80k. In a contingency arrangement, you only pay your lawyer if you win. The lawyer gets an agreed-upon percentage, which in most cases is at least 1/3 of what is recovered (either in court or in a settlement). For example, if you think your case is worth $600k, your attorney would get $200k. You also may have to pay fees for experts, court filings, court reporters, and other costs. Remember, the costs in lawsuit vary depending on the facts of your case and the law firm you hire.
