A contingent fee is when an attorney charges dependent upon a successful outcome in the case. It is often agreed to be a percentage of the total recovery to the client. Such fee arrangements are often used in negligence cases and other civil actions but not for criminal defense or divorce actions.
Mongo is an unincorporated village in Springfield Township, LaGrange County, Indiana. The name Mongo derives from the early settlers' name for the area: Mongoquinong. Although An Illustrated Historical Atlas of LaGrange County, Indiana (1874) translates this as "Big Squaw Village", is presently thought to be a corruption of the Miami-Illimois maankwahkionka, meaning "In the Loon Land".
