Not paying up front legal fees is how a contingency agreement works.

I was asking if the lawyers don't get paid if they lose, and you said it's basically what you said. Not to nitpick but that's not what you said.
Not getting paid means not getting paid if they lose. Isn't that how most of these lawsuits work? I'm not talking about upfront fees, I mean being paid at all. If a lawyer takes an insurance company on in regards to an automobile accident, they only get paid if they win usually at a set percentage, isn't this exactly how this would work as well?
