How does contingency representation work?

You pay nothing upfront to pursue your claim. There is no initial cost to begin. Expenses are deducted only from any final verdict or settlement. And if the lawsuit does not succeed, you owe no fees or costs. The point of this structure is simple. It lets you pursue recovery of import taxes without paying out of pocket to get started.
