3. If any suit brought on my behalf entitles me to have the defendant pay my attorney’s
fees, then I agree to pay THE MANGELLI LAW FIRM those fees as determined by the court
or the above contingency, whichever is greater. I further understand that the fees as set
by the court may well exceed the above contingency figures depending on the amount of
time my attorney expends in the prosecution of my case, the difficulty, novelty or
complexity of my case and the amount ultimately paid or awarded.

4. Costs may be advanced by THE MANGELLI LAW FIRM including filing fees, investigations,
court costs, copy costs, expenses, mileage, mediation costs, court reporters, depositions,
witness and subpoena fees and any and all other costs which THE MANGELLI LAW FIRM
may deem necessary. Client agrees, understands and authorizes THE MANGELLI LAW
FIRM to deduct such costs from proceeds recovered after deduction of attorney fees.

5. If at any time THE MANGELLI LAW Firm or any of its attorneys determines, in their sole
discretion, that it is not feasible or proper for them to pursue said claim, they can notify
me of the same and may withdraw immediately from representation under this
agreement.

6. I hereby authorize THE MANGELLI LAW FIRM and each of its agents, employees,
attorneys, directors and staff members, in their sole discretion, to deduct from my share
of proceeds and pay directly to any person or entity, including but not limited to doctors,
hospitals, insurance companies, contractors, or other experts, any remaining balance
due upon an account incurred by me in this matter.

7. I understand that THE MANGELLI LAW FIRM reserves the right to assign the background
work, intake and investigation to other attorneys, paralegals or investigators, but that
THE MANGELLI LAW FIRM will act on my behalf as counsel, and will also bear full
responsibility for representing me in this matter as described above.

8. I agree to cooperate fully with THE MANGELLI LAW FIRM and to make whatever records,
document or things I have available to THE MANGELLI LAW FIRM for inspection, review
and analysis in the preparation, handling, and prosecution of my case. I further agree to
execute any appropriate releases, authorization forms, or other documents to aid THE

expenses to the date of termination and the value of the attorneys time spent on the file
based upon reasonable hourly rate.

10. This agreement does not cover other types of legal work (such as criminal, tax, probate,
estate, guardianship, lien resolution, counterclaims or cross claims); such services, if
needed, are subject to separate agreement.

11. THE MANGELLI LAW FIRM does not retain original client documents. When the case
closes, these documents will be returned to me after payment of fees and costs. The rest
of my file will be destroyed after 6 years. The file in my case, consisting of pleadings,

matter, and has advised me that litigation in general is risky, can take a long time, can
be costly and frustrating.

13. I further understand that, in the event litigation is instituted and it is unsuccessful as to
any party, I may be responsible to such party for taxable court costs and the reasonable
value of that party’s attorney’s services. I agree that THE MANGELLI LAW FIRM shall in
no way share in such liability or encumbrance. It is also understood that I remain fully
responsible for any applicable sales tax.

14. If there is a dispute concerning this agreement, I agree to arbitration by an Orange

County attorney certified by the Florida Supreme Court as a Circuit Civil Arbitrator. The
decision of the arbitrator shall be binding and final; judgment on the award rendered by
the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction of the parties and subject
matter. If the parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator, the court will select one. The
Court will have jurisdiction to enforce payment of fees. I will pay any fees and costs of
the arbitrator and reasonable attorneys' fees and costs (taxable or not), for enforcement
and collection, including appeal.

15. In the event this Authority to Represent is terminated by me for any reason, I shall
immediately pay THE MANGELLI LAW FIRM all costs and expenses incurred by THE

understand its contents, and agree without objection to the terms contained herein.

time with three (3) business days of the date the contract was signed, as shown below,
