1. To determine the correct answer for question 1, it's necessary to understand the different fee arrangements that attorneys may have. A capitated fee is a fixed fee that is paid regardless of the outcome. Fee-for-service refers to a payment model where an attorney charges for each individual service performed. Contingency fee, represented by option C, is a fee arrangement where the attorney's payment is a percentage of the recovery, usually in cases where the attorney is representing a client seeking monetary compensation. Therefore, the correct answer is C. contingency fee.
2. For question 2, it asks about the type of witness that is allowed to give opinions during testimony. While any witness can provide testimony based on what they observed, an expert witness, represented by option A, is specifically qualified to give their professional opinion in a particular field. These individuals possess specialized expertise that can help the court understand complex matters. Hence, the correct answer is A. An expert witness.
Great job on your answers!
