Connor's PledgeFounder Connor Olson understands that most of his clients come to him at a hard time in their lives when paying for an attorney is not possible. Connor takes great pride in being able to serve these clients on a contingency basis, meaning that they are not charged any upfront fees, and more often than not, Connor is able to advance all litigation costs. By doing this, Connor places his clients on equal footing with their much larger employers and other defendants who are able to spend tens of thousands – if not hundreds of thousands – of dollars on their big firm legal defenses.
