Demand Letter and Contingency Fee Agreement

Along with composing memoranda, a paralegal’s legal writing skills come into play in drafting other legal documents, whether as part of client communication or court filings. In this exercise, you’ll be drafting a demand letter to opposing counsel and the defendant, as well as contingency fee agreement for your own client to agree to and sign.

Week 2 Tasks

Draft two documents, an initial notice of suit and demand to the defendants and a contingency fee agreement for your client John for the personal injuries sustained by him.
