[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pro bono. [/quote] Source? My guess would have been contingency,[/quote] Either of those two means nobody is “paying for it.”[/quote] No, pro bono means the firm is paying for the costs and providing labor for free with no expectation of reimbursement. Contingency means the firm is fronting the costs of the action and not charging an hourly rate, but will take a percentage of an eventual judgment/settlement (if there is one) as compensation.[/quote] Either one means that the lawyer/firm is not being paid by some currently-unknown backer.
