Merchant Services Protection Plan members can easily find a pre-qualified personal injury lawyer close to their location by calling 800-511-2896 or by visiting MerchantServicesProtectionPlan.com. Cases that involve personal injury or collections are typically handled on a contingency fee basis, which is normally a percentage of the amount collected or awarded. For collection matters, plan attorneys receive 18% if the case is settled prior to formal court proceedings and 27% after the case is finalized. Other types of contingency services receive a 10% discount on the state maximum or the attorney's standard rate, whichever is lower.
