I am working on a property that is in foreclosure in WA state. It is 2 months into the process, $11,500 in back payments and taxes and a few thousand in attorney fees for the mortgage holder’s attorneys. Is there a ballpark estimate of how much attorney fees will be once the 135 days is up and it goes to sale, and is there any formula for calculating the rate of their charges?

I asked this question in a different way, and I neglected to explain that it’s not a law suit case, so ‘contingency’ is probably not an option.
My question is: If a potential client doesn’t have the entire retainers fee up front for an attorney, is there a way that an attorney can start representing the client with some sort of a guarantee that he/she will be paid? Is there a form of written agreement that can be drawn up between the attorney and the potential client?
