You need to look at your fee agreement. If you don't have a copy have your attorney send you one. Many fee agreements have a provision for reimbursement of costs such as postage and parking fees but others include those cost into the cost of doing business. If your fee agreement will also state the contingency fee percentage. The attorney is bound by the percentage set out in the fee agreement.
