Document background
The Retainer And Contingency Fee Agreement is essential for establishing clear terms between legal service providers and clients in Singapore. While pure contingency arrangements are prohibited under Singapore law, this agreement structure combines a fixed retainer with permissible success-based elements. The document ensures compliance with the Legal Profession Act and Professional Conduct Rules while providing transparency in fee arrangements and service scope. It's particularly useful for ongoing legal relationships requiring regular services with potential additional compensation based on outcomes.
