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.
Califon is a borough in Hunterdon County, New Jersey, United States. As of the United States 2000 Census, the borough population was 1,055. Califon got its name because California, its original name, didn't fit on the sign, so it was shortened to Califon.
