Inheritance Heists Ch. 3: Contingency Advantages for Estate Litigation

I’m Mike Hackard with Hackard Law.  I’m sharing passages from my new book Inheritance Heists – and I hope that they can help you avoid estate disaster.

Traditionally, estate and trust litigation has been the domain of hourly billing, often putting quality legal representation out of reach for many deserving beneficiaries and heirs. Hackard Law’s contingency fee model changes this paradigm:

Alignment of Interests: We only get paid if we win, ensuring our goals are fully aligned with our clients’.

Access to Justice: Clients can pursue valid claims without the burden of upfront legal fees.

Risk Sharing: We shoulder the financial risk of litigation, demonstrating our confidence in the cases we take on.

Efficiency Incentive: The model encourages us to resolve cases as efficiently as possible, benefiting both clients and the legal system.

Contingency fees level the playing field – they give the individual a fighting chance against powerful defendants and can deter bad actors from further wrongdoing.

If you’re up against intimidating odds and you need help, you can call us at Hackard Law: 916-313-3030.  We want to hear your story.
